View allI'm in Bangalore and I need to get idrv. I managed to get some when I was at home, but I still need more doses. I'm worried because it seems like many private hospitals here might not have it. Do you know where I might be able to find it?
Visit nearest government hospital,there you will definitely get it.

I'm really worried about my health situation and hope you can help me out. Back in June 2015, I had protected sex with a sex worker. Over the past year, I've done several HIV tests, including the tri-dot and an ICTC test, and all of them came back negative, even the one-year mark test. But I'm anxious because I've read online about a connection between HIV and filariasis. Lately, I've had jaundice and a swollen testicle, and I'm currently on medications like dec 100 mg. So now, I'm really confused and would like to know: how accurate is the tri-dot test, and could all these symptoms be related in any way? Am I really in the clear or should I be worried?
There is no such relation no need to worry you are free from hiv ,get yourself tested once a yr for 3 years
