Today was along day. And just like Monday, I ended up coming home absolutely wankered and ruing it. So there we are. Today was my first full testing session of the lot. And so I guess it’s something to report on. The basic story is that I went to a clinic in Leeds and had a very large amount of blood taken while someone that I’m sure I’ve slept with tried to talk my through HIV and what it does. That was quite entertaining. I went with a mate, it’s always the best thing to do in case you have a nervous breakdown in the waiting room, and she waited there for a good 2 hours.
Try not to be the mate, it’s not fun.
So yes, I had seven tests taken. 3 for the immunology department, 3 for the microbiologists, one for the haematologists, and one for the sheer hell of it. These have all been sent off to the relevant departments, and within a week, I should have my baseline results back. Basically, this includes your CD4 white blood cell count, your T lymphocyte counts, and many others that they feel will be useful. These are the most important parts for it, and you really do need to make this test. It’s along trek from here on in, and this is just the first step. This time next week, I’ll know if I need medication or not. So I will more than likely keep you informed. If this is helping, please let me know. And do the same.
