Sooooo...
« on: January 28, 2014, 08:11:31 pm »
My doctor called me up last Friday to ask me to come in for an extra set of labs because I am trending up.  Last two:  130 something and this last one was around 500.

Hoping this is just an odd sort of blip experience because I really like my combo and don't want to leave it.

Combo:  Prezista, Truvada, Norvir.

Do note that there was a period of lateness without meds a few months back (remember?   when I asked if anyone had meds to send my way?), but I have been back on the wagon since then and would have expected a return to UD by now.

Le sigh.

Your concerns are legitimate.  Hopefully it's something that will be corrected with continued meds but if not, it's time for a resistance profile.
Being honest is not wronging others, continuing the dishonesty is.

I'm on the same combo and am now experiencing the same problem. Not having meds that is. For 2 1/2 weeks now I've gone without due to a some sort of screw up which has now been resolved although it will still be a few days until I get my pills.

It will be interesting to see what my numbers will be come this spring.

le sigh....meh. it's what it is, isn't it?

yeah.  it's weird.  my standard of care - from the actual providers - has been great, but snafus from ADAP and such have resulted in a couple of gaps over the time of my treatment.  this last one in October was one of the longer ones.  I ended up going about 3 1/2 weeks, I think.  I expected to be above UD the last go around.

I'll be pretty bummed if that ends up costing me this combo.
