I am a 15 year HIV positive survivor
      #2096 - 04/04/00 05:56 PM

I am a 15-year HIV positive long-term asymptomatic survivor. I
have been vvery fortunate with my meds... I have never had a drug
reaction from anything I have taken to control the replication of
my virus. I have had an undetectable viral load since 10/96 and
have had a T-cell count above 600 since 1/97. Currently I have my
PCR done at a lab in California since their test is sensitive to
as low as 20 parts. I take low doses of Norvir (Ritonavir), Zerit
(d4T) and Fortovase (the new gel formualtion of Saquinavir). I am
mostly Eastern European origin. My Irish roots can also be traced
to the sailors of Spanish Fleet who settled in Ireland after
their shipwreck in the 16th century. Also my European ancestors
were predominantly Gyspies (Romani) and were therefore not part
of an insulated society, but rather one that had exposure to many
different life situations. I am convinced that my survival can be
partly attributed to my ancestors having survived the Black
Death. Some scientists agree with this theory. I would be
interested in corresponding with others who may share my genetic
background and have had good viral control results. E-mail me at
