| Response from Dr. Wohl
 From what you write, it seems that your CD4 cell count is around 1000. This is a very normal result. I would not recommend treatment at this point. Generally, in the US, when the CD4 cell count reaches around 350 most recommend initiating HIV therapy. For more information about HIV and recommendations about starting treatment go to: http://www.aidsinfo.nih.gov/guidelines/adult/AA_071403.html | ||||||||
