 It may very well be the correct approach. Another number to watch is the CD4%. This is a more stable number over time and may take longer to increase, as the absolute CD4 count is more subject to variability. It is very good news that the viral load is undetectable, and I am certain the CD4 count and percent will increase over the next several weeks. | |||||||||
