Hi,
I really need some advice. I'm nearly resistant to everything and
have been on DDI, D4T and Kaletra for 5 years. My numbers, though not
great (209 T's and 5,700 Viral Load) have remained steady and even
climbed a bit in those 5 years (I also feel/look great and never had a
side effect or opportunistic infection). Suddenly my doctor says it
isn't ethical for him to prescrib DDI and D4T together because of newly
published reports of side effects and my only last option is to start
Fuzeon, which, of course, I'd rather not do or put off longer.
This is very frustrating cause i was coasting along fine before. Is
it true that DDI and D4t can't be prescribed together any longer? Now
they've taken me off it as of a month ago and, not surprisingly, my
viral load has shot up to 60,000.
Thanks,
Brian
