Title: New numbers
Post by: wolfter on September 06, 2011, 10:02:16 pm

Thanks to Webview, I was able to see my latest lab results.  Seattle must have agreed with me instead of hindering my treatment.  More evidence that white wine spritzers work for me :o

Finally have enough cd4's that I can't name them all (488).  So close to that magical 500!  My doc worried about taking me off the Fluconazole until I hit that number, but I was pretty persuasive due to those terrible side affects.

My vl is low enough that I can give them nasty bitchy names.  There's only 20 of them.

% is 19.8 which is the best I've had to date.

Maybe a little nightcap celebration?

Absolutely! 

Further proof that AMG is not only good for the soul but good for the body as well.  I am happy for you and wish you continued good progress.

Oh come on... you could name at least one of them! 

I've always rather fancied the name Nebuchadnezzar myself   ;) 



But seriously, congratulations!

(enough nightcaps and we could help you name them all!)

I attribute it ALL to you and Mark trolling the streets of Seattle doing recon on all the bars for the rest of us.  Who says that being altruistic doesn't actually pay!!   ;D

Congrats!

Not quite all the bars. I think we missed one in Tacoma.  ;D

Congrats Wolfie! I still think the lavender martinis had something to do with it.

HUGS,

I forgot about the lavender martinis.  AAH, that would have been the Chapel Bar.  A gay bar in a former church, just makes ones' eyes tear up with pride.  I drank lots of new things that week and should be ready again come summer.

Yeah....I hit the 500 mark!  535 CD4 and the % at 22.3 and a vl of 40.  That's practically a cure for my poor ass numbers over 20 years. 

Fasting blood sugar is 114.  That's slowly becoming a concern.....but doesn't trump my other great results. 

I love seeing my results before meeting with the doctor.  See him Thursday.

Great news....you and I both share a concern about rising blood sugar.  Unfortunately, alcohol does not help!  I miss my Manhattans!

Happy New Year and congratulations on reaching the 500 threshold!
