elite controller

[Worriedsicked]

Would being a elite controller cause clearview HIV test to test negative after three year exposure. Exposure was unprotected sex.

Will you be able to.rebound from the crash with meds? You had an occupational exposure correct?

[Teak]

Don't have any idea what caused the crash. It has taken 7 years for my CD4s to go from 52 to 480. Mostly due to having Disseminating Histoplasmosis.

[Mommy2one2007]

What has been your cd4 count? Did they say what caused the crash?

[Teak]

No I wasn't on meds until my CD4s crashed in 2005.

ok thanks

[Mommy2one2007]

We never gave him antibody tests because he was already positive. There was no reason to do the tests. He was tested once and confirmed positive, thus seeing HIV specialist.

[Mommy2one2007]

Were you ever on meds?

[Teak]

I was a LTNP for 21 years and my VL stayed constant at 4500.

[Worriedsicked]

Did he always test positive even with Rapid test?

[Mommy2one2007]

Ive worked with an HIV specialist, and we had a few patients that were elite controllers and some that were LTNP. Very interesting, one of our patients always had undectable vls or in a blip, very low vl, and had not been on meds for almost 11 years now.

[Teak]

No it's not possible and being infected.

[Mommy2one2007]

If im not mistaken an ec would still produce antibodies detectable by three months. I dont know of any kind of controller that wouldnt, do u??

[Teak]

Yes.

[Worriedsicked]

So my three year conclusive test is definitely accurate?

[Teak]

No.
