Truvada & Prep
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

It will be awhile before I see my ID doctor. I was just having a thought and wanted to see if anybody knew the answer because I really do not know

If one is taking Truvada as prep from getting HIV, that is great also.
I also know one's HIV strain might be different than another, so there is the chance of making a new strain.

Truvada Two-Step Anyone?
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

So it's been some time since I've been on Truvada, however I've noticed that once I started on it many years ago, I have had a rather "shitty" time (and I mean that quite literally). Has anyone else ever had this problem, specifically with Truvada? If so, is there anything you have been able to do with it? Has a change of meds worked? It's better now that I'm on Triumeq instead, however it is basically Truvada and another medication rolled into one pill, so I'm wondering about perhaps changing… read more
