Reyataz is the least problematic of the PIs of which I am aware. I loved it when I took it, but had to stop because of stomach acid issues.

If PN develops, it normally takes a bit of time, several years, before it is noticeable.

But, who knows. It could happen faster.

But as AIDS meds go, you are on one of the easiest to take.

HUGS,

Mark
