Others decide they won’t let HIV stop them from doing everything they want in life, and decide that the relatively low risk of being questioned about meds is an acceptable risk to see other parts of the world (including the US). Some people decide on principle never to visit any country that has unfair entry criteria (including the US when those restrictions were still in place). I’m sorry this answer isn’t ideal but this is going to be a personal choice. This might help if you are unlucky and get stopped by a customs officer. It can sometimes help to travel with a letter from your doctor, saying you are receiving medical care in the UK (not mentioning HIV), but that you are fit to travel. In practice, most people travel with their meds, sometimes in vitamin jars, and hope everything will be ok. If you are calling by phone, it is best not to give your name or say you are HIV-positive. You can get an official answer on entry restrictions to any country by contacting the appropriate embassy or consulate, or visiting their web site. I’m worried about being refused entry into one of these countries, should they find the pills in my suitcase.
