4 week labs/vl 30!! O happy day!!
« on: November 11, 2014, 11:37:11 am »
started with viral load of 5.7 mil, who knows what is been over the past 25 years when nobody was looking, even though I was hoping for 'undetectable" that so many have reported, I'll settle for 30 with much happiness, joy and gratitude.

Treatment has been OK most days. Water has been a Godsend (who knew something so accessible could help so much) Have had a few bad headaches, a couple days of heartburn that I may have gotten anyway, a few sleepless nights that was def related to the Riba. A lot of lightheartedness, brain fog, a couple mood swings.

Even though I feel better physically, I'm not there yet. I just woke up from two 12 hours of sleep in a row. I did notice a few days ago that the bone tired feeling I used to live with was gone, even though I am still tired, I'm not as bone tired. For that, I will be forever grateful to the drug co's for taking this one on.

Thank you all my fellow posters for without this board I'd feel very alone and isolated. I don't post a lot, but do read and hope the best days are still ahead for all of us rebels that didn't follow the rules.
I feel that hubby and I are paying the ultimate price, for even though I will prob get cured, there's a very good chance of losing him way too early if he doesn't get a liver transplant. Just helping him get on the waiting list has been exhausting for both of us. We'll have to sell the lovely home we've built together over the past five years so we can be close to family in preparation for transplant.

Brain fog has set in and I've suddenly lost my train of thought.

Wishing a great day to all my fellow Hepc'ers
