One month... When the PA at the VA hospital said I shopuld have
totally cleared the nasties.
Thankfully, my friends here informed my understanding on that point--
it's "delusional".

Goodmorning,
 I took my first shot and set of pills last night, wasn't to bad. I

It's been a year--almost to the day--since I started treatment. I

I'm 20 days past Tx and need support.

Howdy all,
