How Often Do You See Your Infectious Disease Doctor
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

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.

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

Baton Rouge Doctor
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

My doctor of 11 years retired and I got no referral. Now, I can't find another who'll take me without a referral. I've recently gone through Covid induced pneumonia (recovering), so it's dangerous for me to be without medical care. Anyone in the BR area who can recommend a doctor, please do. Thanks.
