Good news.  My 12 week lab is monday and incivek is done thursday.  Will be glad when this phase is over.  Can you post later on post incivek sx or when you starting feeling better.  Always nice to have a carrot out there.

With the HGB, are you still at 1200 mg riba?  When mine dropped, we went to 600 and still there.  There is a lot of activity around reduced riba with incivek and how much is enough.  My dr would rather riba be at least 800 and 1200 if you can stand it; but there appears to be some studies showing it doesn't take 1200.

Good luck with the next leg.  Mine will be another 36.

Home remadies are not going to help. 10.5 is not to bad after 12 weeks. You might ask your doc about procrit .   Most docs do not start that until you are under 10 or lower You should feel beter now that you are finished with incivek. Good luck with treatment.
