Hey everyone,
Was looking for some advice, support, similar experiences....
I was diagnosed as + in November 2015, didn't start my medication until January 2016 which is Triumeq! Before beginning my medication I had a viral load done which was 551,000 (if that makes sense to anyone)... When beginning my tablets my consultant told me there would be a high chance I could be sick with the medication... Which I haven't been!!! Basically one month later which was Febuary, I was Fully SUPRESSED! With a viral load below 70! (My consultant had told me it could take anything from 6 months to a year to become SUPRESSED)...
1. I was never sick during my first month medication (which is good but not what i was told)
2. If my viral load was so high how on Earth have I become SUPRESSED so fast just after 28 tablets???
Does anyone or has anyone heard of anything similar to this? I shouldn't say this but I am beginning to doubt my illness/infection entirely and its diagnosis? Could it be something else? Does hiv tests confirm HIV 100% or is it a trend in the bloods that indicate it?
Hopefully someone has had or heard a similar experience, my buzz of being delighted is over killed by doubt right now and I can't help it!
Thanks in advance for reading and replying x
