Response from Dr. Currier
 Generally people do begin to experience HIV related symptoms when the T cells drop, especially when they go below 50. Most non-progressors maintain their T cell count. You must have some elements of your immune system that are keeping you healthy. I hope this continues to last. I am sorry that i do not know of any studies of people with low T cells, you may want to call 1-800-TRIALS A -JC |
