The HIV is now undetectable

Have been taking the HIV pills for three months now, and have had the results of the latest blood test taken the other day. The HIV viral load in the blood is now undetectable (less than what current tests can pick up) and the CD4 count is the highest one I've ever had since getting tested with the HIV, at 880. An excellent result.

There was more good news with the kidney functions. They have improved a bit more and are near normal now. That's an amazing result considering where I was at two years ago with the acute kidney failure. The specialist at the hospital said the results would never go right back to normal because of the damage from lack of oxygen, so that makes these results even more remarkable.

The only bad news was my blood pressure is still bananas at 155 over 105. Typical of me that, as once it gets high with me it stays there stubbornly. Doctor wants to check it again in 2 weeks after I've been taking the higher dose of blood pressure pills for a while. May have to add another tablet of something to get it down.

Oh, and I'm drinking a bit too much beer. Said to the doctor "Well you can't have total perfection you know". He laughed, but was adamant I should address the issue. Trouble is the so called healthy amount of beer to drink, as dictated by doctors, is so fuckin low as to be rather impractical.
