A Day in the Life: Nelson Vergel on Wellness, Worry and Multidrug-Resistant HIV (Video)October 16, 2012 Keeping up with HIV meds often means having to weave daily doses into a busy life. How do other HIVers do it? In each episode of this video series, we'll take a peek into the day-to-day routine of a person who's living with HIV, taking HIV meds, and dealing with situations that get in the way of adherence. Watch other videos in the series. Episode 9: Nelson Vergel Age: 51 Home: Houston, Texas Diagnosed: 1986 Summary: "I never had an undetectable viral load until three years ago," says longtime treatment activist Nelson Vergel. Between HIV meds and supplements, Nelson takes about 45 pills a day -- and he's on the last available HIV drug combination he can try. Nelson shares how he stays fit, relaxed and on top of his complicated regimen -- and how he keeps perspective, and manages his fears. Filmed and produced by Mark S. King.
