Comment:
i have been taking HIV meds since 2001. i recently changed to Stribild from Atripla. I have NEVER felt so sick before. i feel hungover almost all day after waking up and i don't drink. i can't take it anymore and am gonna call my doctor tomorrow and get back on Atripla. Stribild has made me feel miserable every day that i have taken it. i also feel achy in my joints.
