Rico - "Judge me if you want and call me a Truvada whore, I don't care"

by Rico
West Palm Beach, Florida

I have been on Travada for 4 months now. My primary care giver who is gay and have been going to for 30 years didn't know about PrEP which shocked me. He then referred me to an infectious disease specialist who shook her finger at me about condoms and the need for them.

I just looked at her and said "I'm 54 years old and HIV negative and I'm here for the drug, are you going to fucking give it to me?" 

There seems to be a never ending need to cling to the past, one which I might add is not working so well for the "old school" weather it's straight or gay, the infection rates continue to climb.

I'm thrilled I met someone on a hookup in NYC who talked to me about it which started my journey to get on it. Since being on the drug I talk to everyone about it, judge me if you want and call me a Truvada whore, I don't care.

The only side effect I have experienced were dreams and they have faded over the months. Other than that, nothing.

Happy in Florida.
