I totally get what your'e saying..but why has my t-cell count
dropped since I have been diagnosed, and why has my viral load
increased? Could you point me in a direction for which I could find
out this info for myself and compare it with other info?



Thanks,

sincerely Phillip L. Murray.

"rizivir, Combivir, and Viramune"

Yes, Phillip and I believe that one of the side effects for all of
those
drugs is "DEATH!"

Phillip, I've had a low T-Cell count too. I feel fine. I know
other people
who have had T-Cell counts that go all over the charts and they're
fine.
People who test completely negative for HIV can and do have low T-
Cell
counts all the time. I also know people who have had "HIV" for over
ten
years and their T-Cell counts are high and unchanging generally...
and it
doesn't seem to affect their health at all.

You know what will happen when you take those drugs? Your body will
react
to them, pushing your immune system to react and fight the foreign
substances in your body, making your T-Cells raise. Yay! Happy
number on a
piece of paper! But it doesn't mean a damn thing. In the meantime,
the AZT
(combivir)will be slowly killing your bone marrow which is what
produces
your immune cells in the first place. Your liver will work overtime
to deal
with all the poison you've chosen to ingest so you can be happy
about a
number on a piece of paper.

I couldn't find anything on Rizivir, but I think it's a PI, so I
included
some info about that.

Do some research and stop thinking that you need a happy T-Cell
count to be
healthy. Just take care of yourself, and when you get a sniffle,
well take
some vitamin C and get some rest just like the rest of the damn world
does!!!

<< Its PRODUCT INFORMATION release for Combivir (AZT and 3TC) states,
"Patients should be advised of the importance of taking COMBIVIR as
it is
prescribed" i.e. "One COMBIVIR tablet…twice a day."
[23] The truth of the matter is that AZT makes you feel like you're
dying.
That's because on AZT you are. How can a deadly cell-toxin
conceivably make
you feel better as it finishes you, by stopping your cells from
dividing, by
ending the vital process that distinguishes living things from dead
things?
Not for nothing does AZT come with a skull and cross-bones label when
packaged for laboratory use.
[24] These are some of AZT's `side effects' listed by its
manufacturer: Body
as a Whole: abdominal pain, back pain, body odor, chest pain,
chills, edema
of the lip, fever, flu syndrome, hyperalgesia; Cardiovascular:
syncope,
vasodilation; Gastrointestinal: bleeding gums, constipation,
diarrhea,
dysphagia, edema of the tongue, eructation, flatulence, mouth ulcer,
rectal
hemorrhage; Haemic and Lymphatic: lymphadenopathy; Musculoskeletal:
arthralgia, muscle spasm, tremor, twitch; Nervous: anxiety,
confusion,
depression, dizziness, emotional lability, loss of mental acuity,
nervousness, paresthesia, somnolence, vertigo; Respiratory: cough,
dyspnea,
epistaxis, hoarseness, pharyngitis, rhinitis, sinusitis; Skin: acne,
changes
in skin and nail pigmentation, pruritus, rash, sweat, urticaria;
Special
senses: amblyopia, hearing loss, photophobia, taste perversion;
Urogenital:
dysuria, polyuria, urinary frequency, urinary hesitancy. >>

On Viramune aka Nevirapine...
<<
What's more, the effects of nevirapine on "surrogate endpoints" were
only
noticeable among patients "with HIV infection who have experienced
clinical
and/or immunological deterioration." Not for people appearing well,
and
whose lab test results were considered normal, despite having a virus
ravaging their immune systems, according to their doctors.
That nevirapine is extremely poisonous was admitted on the drug's
label –
advising discontinuation "in patients who develop a severe rash or a
rash
accompanied by fever, blistering, oral lesions, conjunctivitis,
swelling,
muscle or joint aches, or general malaise." And make no mistake,
when the
manufacturer talks of rash, it isn't referring to a brush with
stinging
nettles. It means a generalised symptom of drug intoxication so
severe in
some cases that it shows up with thick layers of your skin dying off
and
peeling in great chunks. An ad for the drug – featuring the
endorsement of
"the dosing convenience of VIRAMUNE" by transatlantic sailor Mike
Schmidt –
"WHEN THINGS GOT ROUGH VIRAMUNE DIDN'T GET IN MY WAY" –
explains: "Severe
and life-threatening skin reactions have occurred in patients
treated with
VIRAMUNE, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal
necrolysis.
Fatal cases of toxic epidermal necrolysis have been reported." The
ad also
warned of "severe…liver toxicity, including fatal cases", apart from
the
bother of "fever, nausea, headache, and abnormal liver function
tests."
,,,An official investigation found that two of the dead died of liver
failure, one of pancreas failure (both conditions caused by acid
lacidosis,
a standard side effect of antiretrovirals), and two of neurological
damage
(likewise). Other trial subjects suffered deafness, impaired speech,
anal
bleeding, sores that wouldn't heal, abdominal pains, weight loss,
fevers,
pneumonia, insomnia, vomiting, and depression. The investigation
concluded
that nevirapine had probably caused the liver damage that had killed
two of
the women. >>
