Good Afternoon everyone, I just had the vampire take a couple of vials of my precious blood for my six month Heptimax. I haven't been on the MB for quite a while but as soon as I driving away from the lab, I thought about the board and all of you. Funny how that works, eh. It just reminds me how important it was to have you all ( and this board) in my tx process. In fact, if it wasn't for one of our friends on  board here, I probably would still be weighing the pros and cons ( thanx Deb!). I've since turned on others in tx to our board and they are happily but sometimes uncomfortably trudging though tx. Thank you for being here and giving support and info that was badly needed and please keep it going. Now, I'll pray and wait for the result. But, ya know what? Regardless of the results of the tests, I'm glad that I went through the tx and was fortunate enough to complete. Six months later and I'm no longer constantly exhausted, which I was prior to tx. I don't fall asleep in  the middle of the day while working. I feel stronger, am able to work at an increased rate and I'm actually enjoying many things which I used to dread doing. My appetite is back, back to my regular weight and my hair has it's wave back which could have been used as a straighedge at the end of my tx. So, thanx for everything guys, I'll let you know what the dice say when they stop rolling. Most of all... Keep killin' those little critters!!!     Pauly
