I learned that I was HIV positive on April 23, 2013 with a viral load of 50,000. By august my viral load was 99000. I am not one who likes to take medication and was extremely nervous and upset about starting my treatment. I finally found the courage after being tired of feeling bad all the time, probably due to the stress and emotional anguish over my status, and started striblid on September 27, 2013. I expected the worse as far as side effects. I take my pill in the morning with my normal breakfast of two boiled eggs. It is now 5 months later and I feel great. No side effects except and occasional afternoon bout of diarrhea, which hasn't been severe at all. Having this drug available to us has been a blessing. It has brought my viral load to non-quantified, which is one small step from non-detectable. I feel normal again (as normal as one can with the added vigilance of having the virus).

I started stribild in Dec 2012, since then I have been ill, I have had a continuous psin on my shoulder, unbearable till now, I really feel sick! my shoulder pains, my arm feels pains with vibrations, and pains like nerve pinch and needle pinching on the whole arm, and the pain from my right side on my face and neck, i feel very weak most of the time, and my knees pains and my feet pains and I get muscle pains as well as numbness! I cannot take the pain any longer, the arm is so weak that I cannot even work. Horrific experience for me, I took truvada, and insentress before and never experienced any problems, but because I wanted to take a one day tablet, it is not working for me. Please help!
