Response from Dr. Wohl
I do not think I have had anyone come in and say, I can't take this wasting, get me on some antiretrovirals. Generally, if wasting is present, the person does not feel well at all and is looking to improve the way they feel rather than just the way they look. Once on therapy, people frequently do gain weight with lean and adipose tisse increases. Thanks, DW | |||||||||
