Email 563: Treatment Hubs with CD4 and VL Testing


Hi Sir.

I was tested HIV positive this Aug. Can you please email me treatment hubs with corresponding cost on these following tests?

     1. CD4
    2. Viral Load

I understand these tests are expensive & I want to know where I could get a cheaper one. Much better if you could also email me treatment hubs that give these tests for free.

Thank you very much & God Bless.

CD4 and VL Fees?

A lot of pozzies have been asking me about the CD4 and Viral Load fees so I asked all my friends, doctors and fellow pozzies about it. So far this is what I got.

Note: to be sure, add extra cash just in case, but this table would just give you an ESTIMATE on how much it costs in each hospital/hub.



If you wish to add to this table, just email me at pozziepinoy@yahoo.com. Any additional info would be greatly appreciated.
