So what's the deal - has she relapsed or is she just pregnant?

I'm such a  strange bird I never once tested positive for pregnancy with my first-born. The doctors were quite baffled but had to admit I gave birth to a very healthy boy. I didn't lay a dinosaur egg.

I'm so glad you're feeling better.  

I try to tell myself my odds for SVR are better than buying a lottery ticket. I behaved like a practical person at my intake for treatment, very cool, understating my expectations to the doctor. Now that I've invested so much after twenty-one weeks, I don't feel cool at all.  I only want one outcome.

In the end, que sera que sera, whether I take the outcome in stride or do a plain and simple freak-out.

Not to get off the relapse subject, but I knew I was pregnant the day after I conceived and asked the doc for a test.  I had wanted to get pregnant for a long time and instantly felt a pulling feeling in my uterus area when it happened.  He thought I was NUTS but sure enough I was pregnant. I miscarried but that's another story.  Maybe some of us are just more in tune with our bodies or a bit physic.  

As far as my relapse fears, I am thinking more positive today thanks to all of you.

Nygirl: Many of us are uh not so young any more and we have bone pain.  

Hmmm ....that used to be something I got more when I was younger, studlier, and generally had a higher face value, if you get by drift....

Never knew I had the disease until last year - 30+ years infected and never knew it. Went UND somewhere around 15 - 16 wks - never felt the change - what I DO FEEL are the effects of tx drugs everyday.  Now that feeling is irrefutable.
