Well, I dunno about "shimmer and glow", but here's what I remember...

The last shot of Peg, and a week later, the last handful of Ribavirin, left me
feeling elated, relieved - and anxious as heck. I had even mentioned here that
- after the full 48 weeks and total compliance to the regimen - I was leery of
stopping the meds. I had been clear from the first VL test (at 12 weeks)
through to the end, but being a g1b with a lot of strikes against success,
even though I was still anemic as hell throughout therapy, it felt "safer" to
just keep taking the drugs, to keep on keeping the virus at bay.

Of course, I stopped on schedule. It would have crazy to keep going ;-)
And I was very lucky in the SVR Sweepstakes...and still am.

Cheers
