4 weeks post EOT

Apr 29, 2009 05:45AM - 10 comments

Went in to get my blood work done, will have VL next Tueday.
I just rang in for some of the CBC results, so far so good:

ALT 17  - this is the lowest since I can remember (promising pre-marker for SVR4)
hgb - 11.8  
ANC- 1.3

I'm still feeling great, maybe a bit too hyper and too much energy, but I'm not complaining about that. And I must say that the brain fog is starting to clear up pretty well. I feel really grateful!

It is amazing how good I feel. I never thought it would go this fast. I sold my car about a year ago, as I was already debilitated.... I am going to buy a bicycle tomorrow to use it until when it gets colder in autumn. I will wait with getting a car, so I am forced to do the exercise. I've been doing a lot of walking every day and it feels good. Am doing my spring clean, emptying all cupboard, washing and ironing all my silk etc. I have so much energy now that I go from 9 am until 2 - 3 am, without stopping. I got off the AD's some days ago and it feels great not to be taking any meds at all anymore. Am religiously continuing my supplements.
My skin has been horribly dry itchy, worse than on tx, but I finally found something which stopped the itching completely. I went into the shop and asked them for the best hydrating heavy power lotion she had and she gave me Biotherm Baume Corps Ultra Riche, it works wonders. The cracked, flaked, rough looking skin is looking smooth again after 2 days. I wished I would have used it on tx, too.
Everything else is going well. Will do my 4weeks EOT VL next week.

I have been feeling like krap the last few days. Woke up this morning really bad, but a few hours later, I was feeling much better. Haven't felt this good in a loooong time. The constant buzzing in the body from the meds is almost gone. Am still very wobbly on my legs, but was able to go out and visit some friends today. As long as I'm either walking or sitting down I'm fine... standing is no good. The extreme fatigue is fading quite fast. I have much more energy, but my muscles are gone... It's kinda weird.

This is amazing.... I am actually already feeling better just after 4 days of no meds.
