Those odds are actually much better than what I had in mind, granted I guess other factors come in to play on a case by case basis but in general that is quite good. I might get into the habit of using the alarms as well to properly time my medication, as at the moment its somewhere between 8:30-9:30 in the morning and 6-8 at night, granted that's probably not the worst thing in the world. One thing for sure is I am going to get through this course and take the meds as prescribed for the 28 days though, even though now it has been a few days I am noticing minor side effects. Thanks a lot for your advice poptronic, I know in many aspects this site takes on the more extreme side of sex/hiv etc. but its nice to know there are people that have been through the same as I am going through, will post when I get the news. oink
