my question is today i saw my doctor because i thought i had herpeys and he gave me a lecture on having safe sex but he also talk about stoping the meds because my viral load is at 300 and t cells are 750 is this normal that i can live with out meds for 10 or more years i have only ben hiv + for a litel over 6 months all advice and come welcomed
You know, there is controversy over stopping meds. Personally, your t-cells are high although it would be absolutely perfect if your viral load were less than 300. if you have absolute faith in your physician, then listen to him. If you need another opinion, then you may want to get when or look at other interactive web sites for opinions. chris
From what I know, stopping meds is the worst possible thing you can do to your body...as Chris said, listen to your physician...and remember, that you have all of us here as well to get you through any rough spots

well i forgot to mention that he would stop them once i got undicatable and i think the rasoon he is thinking of stoing them is if i get a secound strand only 2 or 3 meds would work but still i dont know if its the best idea i thought u had to be on meds for good not stop and go
How would you get a second strand? Sorry for my naivety but im not understanding that comment. Can a second strand of the virus grow inside of you or did you mean a new infection?
