I have an article & some crappy news. I'll start with the article. GlaxoSmithKline & ViiV Healthcare are have released a long acting injection of of Cabotegravir, sold as Cabenuva. This news has been out for a bit. It's a bimonthly injection given at the doctor's office for treating HIV. They're currently working to extend the time between doses. However, the news is that they're trying to have this medication be something that is self administered at home every 3 months. They'd like to see that by the end of the decade. This is doable. The base meds are there. With a little improvement & using current at home injection pens, this could happen.
On to the crap news. At this moment, I no longer have a primary care physician. I called to confirm my upcoming Monday appointment (it was the Wednesday before) & was told he had taken medical leave, retired & was not coming back into the office. Now, I'm scrambling to find a new doctor. It will probably be a nurse practitioner since there are very few actual doctors left in my area. I have some ideas, but I'm not sure at this time. I didn't need this stress.
That's my life at the moment. More stress & another long term relationship ending without so much as a good bye.
Hope things are better for everyone else.
Cya...
