Still Here?

I am back... I have obviously been away for about 2 months.  Away from the blog but still dealing with life :)

So here are the updates... I had just started my HIV medications when I blogged my last entry.  It had been a week I believe.  The medications seem to be working.  My initial T-Cell count was 172, with meds, after 4 weeks it went up to 193.  I was a bit disappointed.  I thought it would have been higher.

I ended up canceling a dentist appt due to the T-Cell count being below 200.... My initial Viral Load was 30K.  Relatively low.  Low Viral Load = Good  Low T-Cell = Not So Good.

Anything below 350 is considered not good and anything below 200, well that's plain no good.  I get my Viral Load count in a couple of days.  It will be interesting to see the results and hopefully I can schedule some blood work.  8 vials of blood!  I better get used to it :)  The blood drawing wont change!  I am better about the meds.  In terms of how I feel taking them, the results.  It still sucks to know I will take these for life.  What I really dislike is when I'm in the middle of something.  Phone, Chatting, Watching a Movie, At the Movies... you get the point and 9 pm comes!  Even if it takes less than a minute to pop the pills in, the fact that I have to STOP what I'm in the middle of is getting annoying but I am grateful that I have access to the meds.

Hopefully I don't stay away from the blogspot long and am able to keep typing away :)  It's late and I needs me some sleep!!!


Good Night Y'all!!!
