Long wait is over
« on: November 25, 2013, 08:30:22 pm »
After 15 months of waiting, problems with the doctor and insurance, changing doctors and starting over, it looks as if I will be starting my treatment for hep c tomorrow. I have all meds on hand and an appointment with my new doctor at 8:30 in the morning where I am supposed to begin treatment. I am looking forward to getting this behind me. Thanks to every one here who has offered support and advice, it really helps.      Jeff

Good news - which treatment regimen? It will not be a fun ride but the destination is worth it.  Keep us informed and hang tough!  -jack
