your kind advise please
Aug 9, 2009
Dear Dr. Holodniy,
First of all kindly give me the chance to thank you and thank everyone in the body for helping us get over what we have to live with.
Your advice is highly appreciated
Nine weeks after my exposure I decided to get tested the results came back POZ
I had taken ELISA HIV1/2 ABS&p24 AGg but could not go for the Western blot because the lab would report me to the police it is not allow to stay in the country where I am if I have Hiv so I had to do it secretly
Two days later I had a CBC & ESR test done and the results are as follows
ESR- 1 mm/Hr (average up to 10)
Hemoglobin 16.2gm/dI(average 13.0-17.0)
Hematocrit 44.5% (average 40-50)
Red Cell count 5.53 million/ul (average 4.5-5.5)
MCV 80 fl the average (83-100)
MCH 29.3 Pg the average (27-32)
MCHC 36.5 gm/dl(average 31.5-34.5)
RWD 13.0
WBC 10600(average 4000-10000)
Basophil 1.0% (average 0.0-1.0)
Eosinophil 4.4%(average 1-6) absolute number 466
Neutrophil 32.6%(average 40-80)absolute number 3455
Lymphocytes 52.4% (average 20-40) absolute number 5550
Monocytes 9.6%(average 2-10) absolute number 1018
Platelet count 223000 ul (average 150000-400000)
Kindly give your advice and your opinion on what I have?

Should I take any vitamins?
Thank you so much for everything
