Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Hepatitis / September 2007No shot tongight...
No shot tonight. This means more to me than last week's milestone, the "last shot" (#48). Strangely, I've felt depressed and anxious this week. I think it's because I'm no longer actively fighting/treating the hep c; now I just have to wait to find out if I won or lost. It's like the rocket engines have cut out, the last booster has dropped away, and now I'm either headed for a safe landing on Mars in 6 months - or I'm not. <gulp> ------------- I think I'll feel better (emotionally) tomorrow - I'm moving on to another stage. I've planned for months that when I get back my Saturday, I'll go to the gym. I'm going to go tomorrow, but not try to do much (I have made a promise on that, too). This time will just be to get back in the game. I'm not expecting much, but it's symbolic. Probably have to come back home, take an Advil, and lie down - but I'm used to that! <g> Feeling pretty good today about the situation - no weekend shot, and no riba for a whole day. Whoopee! It's kinda log being back at "1 of 48" (treatment weeks), only now I'm at "0 of 26" (or 0 weeks plus 1 day) towards the hopeful result of SVR at 6 months... Whether I get that or not, it's now about being healthy - which the last 48 weeks was about too, but now it's not a survival challenge but an building & improvement challenge. > No shot tonight. > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > Probably have to come back home, take an Advil, and lie down - but I'm > used to that! <g> Hey russian, so you did stop at 48! i belive you did the right thing, and now is the time for "waiting", just let the days turn into weeks and months and soon enough six will have gone bye. After a couple of weeks you?ll be itching to get back to the gym, for me it took about a month before i could do any physical work and now 11 weeks past tx i feel realy strong, did some hikiing on Island over the weekend!! I would never beleved i would be able to do that a couple of months ago. Take care /H > Hey russian, so you did stop at 48! i belive you did the right thing, > and now is the time for "waiting", just let the days turn into weeks [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > the weekend!!

It's still going to take a while to process all the poison out of your body so don't be surprised if you have "riba-flashbacks" . Concrats. and I wish you well. Oh - and - after what you've seen, you will never ever be the same again.

My thought is why can't I find somebody that will use my blood to help everybody that has HVC. My Dr. is in the VA system that should answer why they will not help .. So if you know of any Dr. that would help please sen him my way. I just want to help. (drifter15@verizon.net) If you need to know more please e-mail me. >> No shot tonight. >> [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] >would help please sen him my way.

In fact, estimates are that roughly 20% of people that are infected with HCV clear the virus before it becomes a chronic infection. So there are *plenty* of cases to study... Cheers /greyhackles |
