Email 514: Dilemma with the 3-in-1 Pill


Hi Pozziepinoy.

I started take this meds since it replaced the cocktail ARV I using before. But thing is the first day I used it I had an hour of I think having a mild heart attack, I was struggling a bit to breathe and my left arm hurts a bit. I mentioned this to the doctor in my hub (PGH) but she said to try to continue using it for 2 weeks. My dilemma is if I took this again tonight or for a week I might actually die because of the meds and not because of HIV. And thing is the doctor doesn't seem to worry. Kapag ako namatay mumultuhin ko talaga sila.

Would you know a doctor who I could consult? And sabi rin kasi nila, wala na daw yung cocktail, talagang yung 3-1 na lang ang meron na gamut?

Thank you,
