HIV and health maintennance.

I am newly diagnosed with HIV last February of this year, had my cd4 count (t-cells) checked and it's still good at 462. i've been exercising regularly and taking 1000mg of vitamin C and centrum multivatimins once a day.

just recently I developed  red spots on my face and on my forearms, I had it checked with my doctor and told me it was caused by an allergy and is now under medications and food observation to figure out which food i am allergic at.

My concern is my CD4, I dont want to be under ARV treatment yet so I do whatever that will keep my cd4 up. recently I just heard that Minocycline is good for both HIV and acne and I want to try it. Im about to ask my doctor this friday but I havce this nagging feeling to buy it now, so I want to know your opinion if this is good for me.

also - what is your opinion on Virgin Coconut Oil? is it good for us HIV positive people?

thank you.

If you need to take vitamins your ID doctor will advise you as to what deficiency you have and they will tell you if you need vitamins or not.
