Nausea & fatigue Dec 20, 1999 After 11 treatment naive years, I just started a Combovir/Sustiva cocktail (Combo 2x/day and 3 Sustiva @ bedtime). I am entering my 4th week. No major side-effects from Sustiva (just some trippy dreams), but I do have very slight, constant nausea and definite fatique from the Combovir. I also find I am always hungry (there has also been some unwanted weight gain). Will the nausea and fatique go away? I am so tired in the evening that working out just isn't an option. Any ideas or comments for me? Thanks. |

 Yes the combivir is probably the cause (more likely AZT than 3TC) and should gradually improve. If not try switching the combivir for d4T with 3TC. Alvan Fisher, M.D. | |||||||||
