When Life Gives You Lemons

Well what I can talk about. I've been out of work on disability for clinical depression since the middle of Jan. At the request of my primary care doctor i've been going to a therapist once a week, who now wants to see me twice a week, and taking antidepressants. My PCP is a new doctor to me, the one I've had since I became positive changed fields and so I now have the one I'm going to. The bad things is he can't make sense out of my old medical record that was faxed over to him. We spent alot of time today going over things that should have all ready been written down. On top of that it was mentioned that my cocktail may not be working anymore. JOY! Top it all of the guy i've been dating for the past 6 months and i have gotten into our first fight and he wants sometime alone.

The good news is out of the 20 pounds my doctor wants me to gain i've gained 5.

It is a tricky thing to get meds just right especially when you are trying to combine them.
I hope they get the combination right for you soon.

Much love and support to you.

I have learned that lemons are very versatile. I make all sorts of things out of lemons, not just lemonade. I know that you will get through this rough time.

HIV cocktails aren''t good when they don't work. my viral load is now detectable after 5 years of not being that way, and my tcells are dropping again. that's what's worrying me more than anything

When life gives me lemons, I take a knife and slice the lemons in half. Then I take the same knife and cut people with it, and rub the lemon halves into their wounds.

It makes me feel better, anyhow.

Switching cocktails can be a real bitch. And super stressful.
Switching ID docs is not only stressful, but emotionally draining. Even though they're not friends and family, over time you build some sort of strange bond to this person who "keeps you alive".
I've no idea what your cocktail was (nor do I expect you to discuss it in open forum) but Isentress http://www.isentress.com/.../index.jsp and Selzentry http://www.selzentry.com/ have had very good results on a lot of folk with generally low side effects. I was able to switch off of Fuzeon which sucked (I had to inject it twice daily ill). The new cocktail allowed me to ditch the needles and remain undetectable. If you haven't already been on them, ask your doc.
