Avatar m tn I see a new HIV drug is on the market that may stop replication of hsv. How would people obtain this for hsv treatment? It is already fda approved.
Avatar m tn I had a risk exposure and had a base hiv test 4th gen ab/ag 25 hours after pep or after 2 truvadas and 3 isentress. Could this affect the negative result of the base test? Is the base test considered conclusive? The only risk exposure is no longer since the other party hiv test was negative and the exposure was low risk. Thanks for your help...
Avatar m tn Hi, after being exposed to HIV 15 days ago, I'm on day 14 of PEP (Truvada & Isentress). I wonder if facial lipoatrophy (sunken cheeks, temples, eyes, etc) can develop as early as two weeks of being taking these meds. I'm a male model and I make a living of my face. Last week I was fired from 3 photo-shoots in a row. I don't know if I'm really experiencing facial fat waste, or if my face just reflects all the emotional distress I've been through for the past 2 weeks.
Avatar n tn My doctor said I could take Nexium 20 which is my usual medication for this matter but to try no to take it everyday beacaus of interaction with isentress but he is gone on vacation now and I have a really upset stomach and I dont know what to do.
Avatar m tn I took the Truvada 16 hours post exposure and the isentress at 34 post exposure. I take the truvada at 530pm every day and the isentress at 830 am and pm. Is it ok that im not taking them at the same time?
Avatar f tn Like Dr. Pernoud stated there is no relationship between altitude and rds or glaucoma. However, if you've had a pneumatic retinopexy recently w/ SF6 or C3F8 you are not able to go to high altitudes or travel via plane as this will cause an increase in IOP.

Avatar m tn Also its possible for a topical fungal infection caused by a change in the skins pH but in the world of oral sex, none of these happen often compared to the number of oral sex that takes place in the course of a day in the world.

Avatar m tn Our data highlight the potential of direct innate immunity activation in hepatocytes in the control of HBV replication, and support the recent interest in the development of PRR-based antiviral strategies against HBV. In addition, our data suggest that elucidation of the mode of antiviral action of imiquimod may lead to the identification of a novel target for the treatment of CHB. Disclosure of Interest: J.

Avatar m tn I put two fingers in the anus of one of them (who, I am almost sure, is HIV+), practiced rimming and kissed his balls and his underwear (both were wet, not sure it it was because of water, gel or of pre-cum though the two first ones seem more evident). This guy cleaned his anus and his genitals before we had sex, so I thought it was not too risky. However, the second guy penetrated him later and saw blood on this penis. I don't think that I saw blood when I penetrated him with my fingers.
Avatar m tn I have never heard of MOM being used in this way, nor that it has any anti-infective action. And certainly I have never heard of herpes or any other STD being transmitted by contaminated MOM. I see no reason for any concern about it.

Avatar m tn Yes he's sure. Oral sex of any type is not a risk of contracting HIV.
Avatar m tn t had any symptoms as of yet. I only had a bit of a scratch in my throat on the 24th and the 25th day after the encounter, but that could have been due to too much cold pop and ice cream. Please give me your opinion as to how risky this encounter was. Should I be worried? He kept on telling me he was 'clean' and didn't have any diseases. Thank you immensely much for your help! Any insight your might have would be invaluable!
474119 tn?1273841478 After every flight, Qantas Airlines pilots fill out a form called a gripe sheet, which conveys to the mechanics problems encountered with the aircraft during the flight that need repair or correction. The mechanics read and correct the problem, and then respond in writing on the lower half of the form what remedial action was taken, and the pilot reviews the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews and engineers lack a sense of humor.
Avatar m tn Hello - I understand that oral with a person who is HIV+ is low risk, but would it be a good idea to take PEP anyway? My concern is the side effects of the Isentress and Truvada combination. I have the medication, but if infection is very highly unlikely, I think I shouldn't. Friends are telling me not to worry and doctor says it is up to me (which I know). Opinions?
Avatar m tn com that it can be a mode of transmission and it can be taken into a high risk of mode of transmission.I am very scared.Kindly help me and answer.Is there any documented case of transmission from this mode and how can i be sure that HIV does not passes through this mode if i go by your word.
Avatar m tn Yes, it looks no detail can be found regarding this compounds mode of action. In the protocol of the NZ Committee it only mentions "it inhibits the formation of viral components".
2195245 tn?1338428182 Hi, Not sure if this is the appropriate place to post this question, but is there a way to add a specific medicine to the HIV tracker? It only lists 2 of the 3 antiretrovirals that I'm taking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
