HIV Infection
"I was diagnosed with HIV in December of 2012 with a CD4 count of 220 and Viral Load of 332,000. I almost died in September due to PCP and was bed ridden for a month. After three months of treatment with Atripla, my CD4 is almost 500 and Viral Load of 2,000. I&#039;m almost undetectable! I changed my whole life around due to this virus and I never have felt so grateful to be living. I&#039;m at the gym 3-5 times a week, eating healthy meals, cut out excessive binge drinking and smoking, and plan on going back to school to finish off what I want to do. The first month of treatment will be the hardest, but after that, it&#039;s smooth sailing. Also, check out Atripla Co-Pay assistance, they will pay around $400.00 to help you afford this medication."
