Viral loads

[L444]

Does the amount of viral load indicate how long you have had it. I am mystified and want to know if anyone can tell how long or when contracted. Any ideas? Anyone?

I'm not sure , but I was told that the viral load can go up and down. I must say though that mine was 16.000 twenty years ago and always crept up until I reached 1.6 million end of last year, but then it went down to just over a million beginning of this year before starting treatment. So it looks like it's a variable thing. Hope you are doing good!! 🙏💪🍀🍀🍀
