hello to all, I am hoping someone could kindly give me some information on the topics below as I am feeling a bit lost at the moment.
I am an expat living in Chiang Mai and have just received test results and my CD4 count has dropped dramatically, I need to start HIV medications asap.
If anyone could help me with the following questions I would be very grateful.
1. could anyone recommend a good hiv doctor in Chiang Mai that I can have good communication with?
2. I have read that there are doctors in Bangkok who will write a prescription for meds that can then be bought at the Red Cross Bangkok, does this mean I would have to see that doctor regularly? Could anyone recommend a good doctor in BKK who is willing to write that prescription after all tests of course.
3. Does anyone know of online forums/websites in Thailand where HIV positive people chat and share information, help each other?
I am a bit shell-shocked at the moment and my internet searches just go round in circles and make me feel more isolated about this.
