Summary
This index page notes that Christy tried maraviroc and truvada together, which produced "dramatic improvement in 2 days" but caused side effects that made her stop them, calling them "not the right meds for me." The page does not state how long she'd been ill or how severe it was beforehand, and mostly serves as a directory to other posts rather than a full case account. At the time of writing she had not yet reached stable improvement and says she was undertaking preparatory interventions to get her body ready for a future antiviral treatment, so no durable outcome is reported here.
