      I was diagnosed in April 2007 and my doctor informed me that I probably can go ten years without taking any medicine. I have been feeling great and I hope my doctor is right. I do hope and pray that a cure is found in a near future.

      Atripla Working / Worked
      I have just received great news. I have been on atripla for one year and three months.I had a blip three months ago and thought the medicine was not working anymore, but continued taking the pill everynight. Today my doctor called me and told me that my new blood results show that I am undetected with a CD4 count of 790 and my kidney functions are great. I am so grateful for this medicine and I hope it will work for many more years.
