Happy with my new lab results!
« on: January 07, 2014, 11:13:59 am »
Just about six months ago i was diagnosed & wondering about my future.
Today, after just a month of Eviplera (Complera) i got back my lab results and...happily i went down from VL over 50.000 to just about 150...and my CD4 rose above 500!!
I feel very confident and thankful to my docs and my therapy, which has not given any side effect at all...
So i just wanted to share it with you and inspiring those who are afraid about starting HAART.
Happy new year!

That's a very good news! Congrats

I have a doc visit coming up and depending on the result, he might run few meds by me. Complera is in one of my lists. I know I can get from somewhere else, just out of curiosity, did you find it okay, no side effects/ issues using complera?

It a great jump ( the other way:)), that must make your feel good. I am happy for you.
