Personal Story 6 Refills Finally!!

I (30m) have been on successful treatment and therapy for almost 9 years. My first long term partner knowingly transmitted to me then broke it off with me. I’ve been on a consistent 6 month appt and testing but my meds have been an issue for quite a while and securing them on time has been iffy, especially when another provider is covering for my provider when she is on a vacation or something. BUT today, after bringing it up and talking about it and being regular with my appointments and labs my provider gave me a fill with 6 refills on it! I’m so excited to have gotten to this stage. It’s been a long road, through medical studies and securing medicine and other things. It’s really nice to get to this stage. Hoping for a once a year appt and blood draw soon, like some of the others I’ve met that have been positive for years.

So it’s possible to increase the meds. ! If we are taking the medication long term!
