I have just been lucky and now they stop following the treatment so I need to pay for future tests if I want. The state will not do it anyway.

Marvelous! And I ain't quotin' Clint Eastwood. Our chances of dealing with the madness currently sweeping societies is much improved now that we have better liver health.


 I have advised my brother to secure his guitar shop by hanging rubber bats over his newly built instruments and tools. Then run recordings of bat noises flying around his shop all night. That way the crooks that take a peak in through his upper floor window to see if they can get in will get the heebee geebees big time.


FANTASTIC TO HEAR FROM YOU JAKAS!!!

Really happy for you that you have seen such improvements. Too bad your insurance doesn’t cover you for follow ups that sucks.

Stay safe out there in the pandemic :)
