For HIV Infection "Well, it's kept me alive for 13 years with the combination of Crixivan. I haven't had many side effects, and it's kept my T cells at over 1000 and undetectable. Thank you for this wonderful drug."

For HIV Infection "Unfortunately, Combivir didn't work well for me. My red blood cells dropped very drastically. I had to get a blood transfusion within 2 months of starting Combivir."

For Occupational Exposure "I was stuck with a patient's bloody needle when he passed out unexpectedly and had to start Combivir for HIV prevention; given that said patient is active duty military (I am too), the chances of him having anything were minimal, but I chose to take it as a precaution anyway. The side effects were horrible: extreme fatigue, unrelenting daily nausea that I had to go and beg the doc to prescribe me Zofran for, joint pain, can't eat more than a few bites of anything because I feel full, dizziness, and just general malaise, almost like when you have the flu. Still got about two weeks to go on this stuff, hoping for the best."
