What are you really asking? Since there's only one outcome if you willfully stop taking your meds. It takes as long as it takes. Prolly not long at all since you're taking them whenever you feel like it. Please seek help. HIV is a walk in the park compared to AIDS. Then you'll discover tired. No one can help you find a will to live. But AIDS is no way for someone to leave this world.

We are sorry yo hear of your troubles Timm, but I am an Aids survivor dating back to 1996. I can only say that whilst theres life theres hope, and I hope you can see through this diffiicult time and restart your treatment in order to avoid disease proggression.

Drug resistance occurs if you fail to take doses and also if you keep stopping and starting too many times. Either take the drugs correctly, or dont take treatment at all. This is a deadly illness so dont mess around with this virus..

That’s a question you should ask you Dr.

I know in years past I was having a hard time remembering to take my meds and they stoped working so my Dr changed me to another med.

Then when i finally did take them as prescribed my doctor told me that he’s going to change them again because they weren’t s as effective because my viral load started to increase and my T cell started to decrease.

It I’d VERY IMPORTANT to take the meds just the way they are prescribed. At the same time everyday.

Good Heath to you

Not sure how to answer this because I'm thinking of dumping meds but I'm 80 in February ,,I ask the Questions but they don't Answer
