Hi everyone.. I hope ALL my family here are doing well.  I'm jazzed up
today, because, as I promised myself while I was on TX, the other day I
went to *Best Buy*  And bought myself a special present.
I'm not ashamed to say, that the other day all hourly employees at

Any other diabetics in here.  I just took my 9th shot and my glucose
readings have been coming down steadily since I began treatment.  I suspect
I'll go hypoglycemic any day now and I was wondering how much I should cut
back on the Insulin when I do.  I'm taking 22 units before ...

I know alot of you feel pretty 'trashed' after doing the tx drugs, but
whatever you do, don't climb into a dumpster to take a nap.  Evidently,
that's what one of our local homeless folk did.  Boy, did she get a
surprise.  A trash truck showed up and emptied the dumpster she was in,

My gastro (treating me for something else) recently told me there is a
new, more effective  HCV drug that looks like it could get FDA
approval in the beginning of 2007. He said it doesn't have a marketing
name yet, and that for now it is just called by a numeric/alphabetic

My mother has just found out that she has Hep C. I am not to sure how this is
transmitted. We live with her and I have a 8 year old son who I am scared
might get this. I know that I might sound nieve but I keep reading different

effects a 2 or 3.
Hope it continues this way.

Hi,  I have just started Neupogen and will be on 3 times a week. I came
to this forum to find more information but mostly I found are negative
comments. All the side effects, aching bones and feeling sick. It just
made me more depressed and it's not my intention to come to this ...

Since INF + Riba tx has twice failed to render th HCV1a undetectable,
I'll wait for something new, this looks interesting. Maybe I shoulod
buy stock.

until hopefully I get SVR.  What a trip this has been.  I could not of
done this without your compassion, knowledge and encouragement.  Would
I do this again - in a heartbeat if it meant my life being saved.  I
had a very difficult time with the side effects.  As most of you know I

Hi gang.  This summary is from a large Canadian study, published in July.
They retreated geno 1,2 and 3 relapsers and nonresponders with combo tx.
Some of the patients were only treated for 24 weeks (?!) and the Ribavirin
dose was only 800 mg daily(?!).  "When data were analysed ...

Well, I started tx today. The anticipation of giving myself an
injection was much more painful then the actual injection. Had the
injection a couple hours ago and so far feel ok , just  a little warm.
Well, guess I'm going to go lie around watch some movies....

I hope I didn't lose this post.  I've been trying to post it but kept
getting lost in cyberspace somewhere  Was trying to post reply to
people who are just beginning this treatment for Hep C -
This is for anyone diagnosed with Hep C who is offered treatment.  I'm

I found out I might've been exposed to hepatitis c, though i certainly
hope not.  I was at my buddies last week and we went in the jacuzzi,
little did I know that earlier in the day he and his girlfriend had
been in there and she gave him a bl.wj.b in the tub (didn't swallow
