hiv infection
"Diagnosed with HIV in 1985 (30 years ago).  Monitored CD4 levels decreased gradually until they reached 240 2 months ago.  Decided to start medications. Took Atripla for one month (December 2014) but had too many side effects.  Started Stribild 2 months ago and have tingling and numbness in feet and lower legs.  Breathing seems changed.  Rapid heart rate a few hours after taking it.  Worried about lactic acidosis and liver/kidney damage.  Reading lots of internet articles about HIV medications doing more harm than good.  Have to wonder if starting meds was a good decision."
