Seriuos: My first G.I. told me that because I have cirrhosis, I couldn't be tx.ed.

Not serious: My "loving" brother once told me he'd give me a butcher knife if I went and played in traffic!!

I grew up near Battle Creek Michigan, home of Tony the tiger (Kelloggs). Was very addicted to Frosted Flakes. Got the nickname "Tiger" from  my granny.
After  buying not one, but two pair of tiger stripped riding  pants.. all my pals started calling me Tigerpants.
If it offends anyone, sorry.
female, 49, 1a

OTHER WORST::  I guess to use my real nickname on here.

Actually the little hat is a helmet. I do not wear one.
I ride Western so my hat is a cowboy hat, my boots have pointy toes and spurs and I tend to always have a lasso in hand. SO behave or I'll tie you up and give you to my pit bull for a toy.

Ridin' off to the  doc to see what the  game plan is .
I cleared, then had to  stop Tx and relapsed.
Tigerlilly.. I kinda like that.

Bad advice, hummmmm  let's see.   Oh, "Your Hep C isn't that bad because you're not in cirrhosis yet, you can wait another 10 years until something better comes along!"  I don't agree with this concept considering that I've continued to progress, my LFT's and viral load both get high when I'm off of treatment, I am a 1A and 1B and I've already progressed to bridging.  I think that's stupid when you can do something about it to slow down the disease process.  I know that all of you won't agree with me, but every one doesn't have to agree with me.  Also, I've heard, "don't put all those nasty drugs in your body, just eat a veggie diet and eat nuts and seeds and take Milk Thistle".  I've heard, "just don't worry about it and pray for healing and help someone else".  While I'm a Christian and I believe in the power of prayer, I also like to do this in conjunction with traditional medicine and I do help others when I'm not sick on treatment, like I sometimes fix food for people, or give them a ride somewhere, or just encouragement and prayer for others.  But, I feel that God gifted alot of doctors with the knowledge that they have and that he can work through them, too.

OK OK SAMMY ..didn't mean to frighten you.
I caved in and CHANGED my identity on this forum. you will be  seeing me appear as "BarnGoddess" in the near future.
I tried Tigerlilly, Tigerlilly2, but someone  is using that. It was pretty easy to change names..I did have to change email-addy also. It wouldn't allow me to change just the name. Kept telling me I was already registered and asked if I forgot who I was.  LOL

So when you see BarnGoddess. It will just be me wearing tigerpants.
