I have a son who is hiv positive and presently in jail for a parole violation regarding drugs. He has suffered through 2 strokes and I pray for him everyday that he stays safe until he comes home in July. I pray for everyone with this disease and their familys. You have to stay positive and never give up hope that one day there will be a cure to end all the suffering. take care of yourself to the best of your ability I hope everyone has someone to talk to and lean on in the tough moments.

My viral load has been undetectable since 2005 shortly after I began ARV therapy; yet like others who struggle with low counts, my CD4 has never been higher than 380. I've had no health issues thankfully. My doctor keeps assuring me that my counts will improve with time. Wishful thinking?

Hi folks, There is currently no study by Sangamo focused on people with low CD4s despite good ARV therapy. If they do respond to requests from me and other advocates I will definitely write a post and let you all know about it. Warm regards, David

I like the new Idea of SB 928T Iam looking forwards for good news soon. I have been poz for 10 year and my CD4 last time was 565 and I never been in ARV meds and hopefully will go higher by God grace. Good job doctors keep pressing on.

I have been HIV positive for 27 years. My labs listed undetectable for about 10 years. I reached 825 CD4 once in 2007 but usually hover around 550-650. My percent remains around 28%. Apparently, ranges vary for each person to match their "normal".
