Johnson

good news... and very good news for that stock I bought back in March!  Investing in a cure, hopefully it will take a chunk out of my tx costs!  lol.  I'm going to hold onto this for a long time so it will probably swing up and down a little/alot more.  But I think Mitsubishi's drug distributors are going to also buy in for Japanese markets.

find out about my bx in 2 weeks on my 3a

Everyone be good to one another and take care of yourselves.  Its going to get better!   much love from tejas.

"do you go to town lake for fireworks?"

I went to watch the fireworks in the old Whole Foods parking lot downtown.  I watched them with a beautiful young lady I met when out with my friends.  Perhaps a coffee date with her!  But definately slow.  Maybe things won't be so bad.  :|   I LOVE AUSTIN TEXAS!

Hey Goldyn,

Actually the girlfriend left.  Well I kind of made her leave.  she started having sex with other people, and my doc basically said studies show that for some reason that increases her chances of getting HCV from me and increases my chances of getting something... and if I get Heb B from her or one of her new 'friends' before my Hep B antibody shots then I could be a gonner.

Plus i just dont by her whole sexual liberated lifestyle after I stayed monogomous for 5 months while she was in a treatment center.

so i am going through that, a little depressed.  Havent started tx yet.  find out my bx results on the 15th.

OK, sounds like your life is looking up!!  One good decision made: dump the problem before she REALLY causes you problems... I cannot stress enough that NO help is better while on tx than the stress of having someone around that is not supportive, alot of us old timers here have been married for 20-30 years, and the proof is in the pudding, as someone said a while back, that "in sickness and in health" is in there for a reason, and its because its a b!tch when its tx for 11-15 months.  I absolutely cannot believe what a sweetie my hubby as been, when there are times he can be a real jerk, but not for the last five months.

omg..  for some reason whenever you wonderful women bring me such great wisdom it almost brings me to tears and I can just see the light.  That really helps me get over my bitter feeling towards all women that I am going through.

Today has been a rough day but you are right.  I need to start enjoying being with myself and get into a healthy shape and state of mind before tx.  Time to hit barton springs and the hike and bike trail and put down the cigs and depression.

I quit smoking for a month when I was going out with her, so there is no reason for me to sit around depressed now and smoke. :(

I just have this overwhelming urge to have someone in my life that I seek out unhealthy relationships to satisfy that desire.  I get so worried about stuff that hasnt even happened, like how will anyone fall in love with me now that I have a disease.  But I guess that is putting the cart before the horse. I need to start having a relationship with myself. (please no jokes guys about that in the Johnson thread... LOL)
