 Thanks for your post. Many factors can influenc weight in HIVers, not just medications or viral load. It's not unusual to see weight loss in persons with undetectable viral loads-- sometimes it's because of depression, other times because of anorexia (loss of appetite) or low testosterone levels. If you're loosing weight, have a talk with your doctor to look for possible causes. Best of luck, BY | ||||||||
