OK, the rest of the numbers came in.

Viral load is undetectable.

CD4 is still pretty good at 1,054.

Oh yeah, that percentage stuff, which I never have paid attention to, and neither do any of the doctors I know, came in at 38 percent, which, I guess, isn't too bad.

So, all in all, not a bad report card for a 25-year veteran of this battle. Guess I'm good to go until June.

HUGS,

Mark

Those numbers are great, Mark!

My doc doesn't look at percentages either, I am lucky to get my CD4 out of him.
