A member asked:

Do you think i should still be tested for hiv even if my immunoglobulin levels are normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

HIV: Hiv does not affect immunoglobulins in the short term, it affects the CD4 count. If you have reason to believe you have been exposed to HIV you should be tested for it.

Dr Friedlander agreed
