3 Months ago I tested positive on Elisa
and Indeterminate on Western Blot. Back
then the CD4 Count was 548.
I was retested las week. Western Blot came
positive. I had a new CD4 Count which
came on 760.
My doctor could not explain the increase.
Is it normal to loose CD4 cells during
seroconversion? At the time of this first
Cd4 count I was recovering from a lung
infection.

I have heard of that happening if your
body was already compromised from another
illness and has recovered. T Cells
fluctuate. If I have a flue or infection,
even minor, my #s go down, then the next
time I get checked they are up again.. its
a numbers game. As long as your
undetectable then don't worry about the
numbers. Exercise and eat right and sleep
good and take your meds religiously and
everything should be OK.
