 Hello and thanks for your post. You're correct. Persons like you with normal CD4 counts and undetectable viral loads are at much lower risk of having HIV complications. It remains important to continue to get medical monitoring; patients with HIV appear to be at greater risk for things like heart, kidney, bone disease and cancer-- so surveillance for these issues and preventive medicine are of special importance. Be well, BY | ||||||||
