Switching from daily pills to injections for treatment
Undetectable for four years on tablets. Clinic mentioned injectable treatment every two months. Tempted, but nervous about giving up something that works.

Diagnosed with secondary syphilis last month. Now losing hair in odd irregular patches. Is that connected or is this stress?
Diagnosed at twenty weeks. Told it is treatable and not told much else.
My result names the type. Everything I read about that number is more alarming than the general HPV information.
Diagnosed five months ago and I have had something every single month. Everything I read says they become less frequent. Mine are not.
Found at a routine antenatal test. Told the usual treatment is not used in pregnancy. What happens instead, and is the alternative as good?
Diagnosed last week and my cervical screening is due next month. Do I move it?
Found at the opening and apparently extending inside. Told this needs a different approach. What does that actually involve?
Negative screen last week. Does that cover me from now on, or only up to a certain point in the past?
Diagnosed yesterday. Feeling like I should be quarantining and aware that might be ridiculous.
Routine blood test for something else. Results suggest previous infection, treated at some point. I have no memory of any of this.
Everything on offer treats what the virus has done. Is there genuinely nothing that targets the virus?
Physically I am fine. Medication is working, numbers are good. I am not fine in any other sense and nobody at the clinic has asked.
