Well lets see where to update.  I tried to take my shot friday before
last and the darn pen would NOT prime up so I couldn't take it.  Since
it was shot 8, I didn't have any other pens at home.  I couldn't get my
replacement until Tuesday.  So the last two weeks, I have had to work

Does anyone know of any websites that help point a HCV patient in the
right direction?  I have tried Interferon/Rebetol for 24 weeks.  It
was discontinued because it didn't work.  The doctors said that they
have no other therapy at the moment and that there is only hope left

Just got the results back from my 4 week blood tests. Here are my
viral load stats to date:
Day 0 - 4,800,000
Day 3 - 1,020,000

Just want to check in and say hello to the oldtimers and newer folks in the
ng.  I'll be around much more frequently in the future.
Tonight I kicked off my second round of tx with shot #1 of high-dose

Hey Max,
Any relief from the P? If so what are you taking?

10.5mil. to UNDETECTABLE BABY!!! YEAH!
Man! Did I need some good news too. 8 months left.
Hooray for me and Mags today.

I don't get much done. I stay up too late because I feel better at
night. I hate to get out of bed in the mornings, even if it's 11:00 AM.
I dread the day, don't do what I need to, only what I have too. I'm
unorganized as heck and don't know if the mess is the cause or effect.

Hello :) Geno 1 dx 3 years ago (liver is "supposedly" good) had a bx F1A1
I dont remember exactly when it started (maybe 4 months ago), but every 5 to
10 days i am very unwell, RedEyes, Fever, Sweats, Poor sleep (eating seems
to help with the sick feeling), then it all goes away and ...

My test results came back and it shows negative for the virus.  Here's
hoping that is all I will ever see.

Back from my 7 week appointment.
Nurse Co-ordinator continues to be amazed by my almost total lack of
any side effects.
Got shot 2 of my Hep A and B vaccine.

Got the results of my 12 week viral load test this week, no dectectable
virus so here we go for the rest of the ride. My psoriasis or whatever it is
has gone from my elbows and knees 4 weeks ago to covering about 80% of my
body. So I either sit shivering or try to cover up and ...

I'm wondering if my loss in weight could be causing tx issues. I was 200lbs
when I started and now I'm 170. (Twelve weeks later) I started w/800mg Riba
a day and 180u/whatchamacallits a week.
Could my weight loss have any impact on how successful the tx is?

Alright, gals, it's time for ya'll to check in and tell us how you're
