Happy Thanksgiving Jer! Haven't heard from you in awhile. You hangin in there?

New to this but I did like Dan the plumber comment, but sorry I am a retired Purchasing Agent. A service connected disabled vietnam veteran. I have had hep c since 2000 when I did my first 51 weeks of treatment, didn't take :-( But I got my numbers below normal by running 2-3 miles, meditating 30-45minutes and eating vegetarian. That lasted till I quit, I wonder why? Now my viral count is over 14 million and I just been given the news of having 1st stage liver cancer. That's why I was looking into the ultra voilet light and oxygen, Majic Johnson did this and no longer tests positive for HIV.

Just a quick note to say hi to you too. Good to seeya sweety. Hope all is well.

Just saw your post about the rash (8/27/08). So sorry and hope it is gone by now. I know you are taking many things, Alinia and supps. I would run them all by a Dermatologist. Best of luck, neighbor. Looking forward to celabrating your UND, hopefully next week!!

Congratulations on getting #1 done. Hope the sx are kind to you. Isobella

You off and running?

I know you planned to start tx today. You're in my prayers. God Bless and good luck.

Hey Orleans, Dr. Gitlin is conducting the trial on Alinia. He is my doctor. Don't understand the need to do the study if you can get the drug outside of it. Anyway wanted to thank you for sharing your plan. And wanted to ask your advise on approaching Dr. for Alinia. Do you get it from your hepatologist? Is the topic sticky or tricky with Dr's?

orleans, What is Alinia? I've seen it mentioned but can't remember what was said. Is it a supplement or pharmeceutical? Are they having promising results with it? Are you taking it in addition to the current SOC?
