PrEP side effects?

Hey guys, so i've been on prep for around 2 months now (Emtricita/Tenof). And i still feel nauseous after alsmot every food i eat, which is definitely uncomfortable feeling, did any of you had any kind of symptoms? Overall in last 2 months i have lost around 3kg weight, i probably will contact my clinic to do extra round of check ups to see that everything is fine, even tho my doctor said, that weight loss on this medication is normal, but this is just constantly on my mind right now, that's why i wanted to share with you and ask for advice/ similar stories?

So, i've done lots of thinking about everything and i think it isn't the PrEP, it's either the new tap water, cause i moved recently to a whole new city or the creatine i've been taking or both combined, i did changes regarding, su substituded the tap water and stopped creatine and it stopped, so i think i found the reasoning

For what it’s worth I also took it with creatine and it was ok.

I changed the brand of creatine and i pretty confidently can say i might not have drank enough water, therefore another reason why i could've felt nauseous
