What Are Effects From Being Off Medications?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
West Palm Beach, FL

I'm working on getting back on my meds. I have a Dr. appointment next week. I was recently put on Tivicay and Descovy. But then my prescription ran out. I needed Labs done. Then my drivers license was stolen. I had to wait for another one. Then eventually when It came in I had to schedule another lab appointment. Needless to say, I've been OFF the medications for over a month, possibly Month and 1/2. What does this do to the inside of my body and how does it affect how I feel???

St Louis, MO

In your opinion when you look in the mirror comparing yourself before you started HIV medicine and after taking it for a period of time do you feel you looked better before treatment or after when you look in the mirror??

Since living with an ex alcoholic turned sugar addict I've gained a bunch of weight. I plan to work it off and eat adult foods once he moves out.

How Can The HIV Gay Community Be More Proactive In The HIV Straight Community?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Edmore, MI

I touched up on this question a year or two back, and with many more new members, sometimes it helps to get new fresh answers
Are there services that the gay community gets, that the straight community doesn't? Is it harder for straight positive women to get services or needs that the gay community get easily? Does it seem the straight positive community has to go through more red tape? If all of this is true, how can we overcome these issues? How can we stand as 1 community and not be divided… read more

Start by taking the shame out of HIV. I don't judge blood pressure and diabetes folks. Focus on health and where to get treatment.

How Often Do You See Your Infectious Disease Doctor

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Concord, CA

Im wondering , when pretty sick, that he only will see me every 3 months, even when i'm in pain and need help. Al he does is check my counts. As well as being a new id doctor, he swears that the medication im on. (Abacavir/Lamivudine & Isentress) Have no side effects. That my excessive amount of health issues and the regimen, has no part with my health issues. Do you think i should see a new doctor.

A myHIVteam Member

Yes! Definitely ask to see a new doctor. I was asked by my nurse if I would see a new doctor, to which I agreed to; she was a nightmare, so unsympathetic to my situation and didn't believe that I… read more
