Day 2 on Atripla (Strocin + Truvada)

Last night was the second night I was on Atripla combi. I'm actually on Stocrin (Sustiva) + Truvada, which is the same as Atripla.  Woke up twice last night feeling super horny with a raging hardon and jerked off twice. I swear someone mixed some viagra in those meds.

Side effects: Dry mouth (which I countered with oral moisturiser), dreams (lesser now but nothing unlike those before meds), horniness (considered side effect because it affected my sleep). Giddiness in the morning but nothing really intolerable. My doc mentioned that the americans tend to complain over the slightest stuff and I am starting to believe her. This combi is really quite well tolerable. @pozboysg on twitter mentioned about jaundice on truvada. I'm keeping my eyes open for any yellow-ness. :)

Actions: Taking more water today, I feel rather dehydrated, muscle mass looked shrunken which I attributed it to the loss of water. A lot leaner today. Water water water. Doc advised to drink milk also because of the Ca blocking side effects.
