Starting HAART
This month ill be starting my HAART regime...
Facts
As my CD4 level is already low, i need to start it as soon as possible. HAART have some side effects and complications but i know it is proven to suppress the virus and increase the CD4 counts.
Currently, im in my pill training regime. Every night at 10, ill be taking 4 types of pills. 1. Vitamin C (pill training) 2. Vitamin B complex ( Pill training) 3. Isoniazid ( for TB) 4. Pyridoxine ( to reduce the effects of Isoniazid)
So far so good. Always on time ( Ashanti) .
Thank you to my guardian angel who act like a living alarm for me. hehe. thanks.
My experience
I found it hard to take my meds at 10pm not because too busy, but i found it that most of the time, especially weekends, at 10pm, im still either hanging out with my friends, or my family.
There are also pre conditions to take the TB pills as you must eat 2 hours bfore taking the pills. Meaning to say, i must done with my dinner at 8pm.
Usually, when im on my diet previously, i ate my dinner before 7pm. however, there are instances of attending formal dinners where they only start dinner at 7.45 for the first course, and it ends around 930 to 10pm. bugger.
So, i made a decision to not hang out at night or be selective of events to show up to ( macam retis kan).
My feelings.
Nervous beb. Ko baca segala gala macam mak nenek dalam internet ni ttg side effects HAART ni. tapi aku macam dah tepu pun ada gak. baca banyak sangat demotivates me. Too much info of negative things about HAART demotivates me. That is why, now i only read good stuff. Positive infos. It is good to do ur research but stop if it scares you.
I am anxious to start HAART. and i really want to know how it will affect my daily life. Once i know , then i can improvise and make it better to suit my daily activities. For now, i would like to live my life, stress free, healthily and productively.
Spiritually
Now i think im a better person. Instead of being angry at the world, now i understand it better. It is not me against the whole world. It is me working hard for a better living, and becoming a better muslim. Amin.
p/s: going to start running soon. need to buy sport shoes. =)
semoga Tuhan mengampunkan dosaku. Amin.

Insya allah you will be alright..you will be OK. Any drugs that we take will definitely have some side effects on our body. I pray to Allah that your body will be tolerated and adjusted well to the drugs that you will take.
