Is It Safe To Use Testosterone Gel While Living With HIV?

I am sixty seven and want to continue to use testosterone gel. I live with HIV and am concerned that the RN MSN has taken me off my precription of Testosterone gel at Tom Waddell Clinic in San Francisco, she is a new medical professional from my last primary care doctor of eleven years, and frankly I really don t like her counsel in that she is not very reciprocal in question I ask her, I m little concerned that she lacks that passion to be a medical professional, and now she won t even give me an appointment with a urololgist for a second opinion - very strange!

Hello, there could be some rules and regulations to be followed in every country and as a citizen you should abide by. The treating doctor for eleven years must be knowing what is best in your interest and could have acted accordingly.
