I am HIV Poz and on meds.  Does anyone know the availability of HIV drugs in Ecuador mainly Cuenca.  Or organizations that could help.  I'm at a loss and overwhelmed.
Thank you for your help

Best contact person I can think of is Garry Vatcher and his Hogar de Esperanza group.

If you are on FB his contact is Garry Vatcher

"The vision of Hogar de Esperanza is an improved quality of life for those affected by chronic illness with a focus on HIV.

You are very kind Susan.. Thank you for your help.  I will contact him.. I love it down there but skeptical that I won't have my medications.  Sadly they keep me alive...  :o ... which is good just never thought I would have to depend on a pill... My focus is in Cuenca... I loved the city.
Thank You
Scotty
