and the English teacher misspelled anecdotal. lol.Better go spend some more time in the classroom before Monday. It's gonna be a year....
Hector n all- Can-do-man, that's precisely what I meant! There are those of you who have a much wider knowledge base regarding hard facts. Cctex n I messaged n while I could have spent an hour researching, all I could offer was my anectodatl evidence n support. As soon as she posted, sure enough, you all came on with the truth cuz you've lived it AND researched it. And you care.. Oh geez. Here come the tears. Thanks guys for taking the time to help us figure out the trash from the treasure in understanding tx. Good day all.. Xo Karen :) lol at how our appearance does make a diff Dr Hextor, sir. Haha
Hi, just wanted to say this is not something the "forum experts" came up with. This is the guidelines that the real experts have decided. Clinical care options is one of the top sites with many of the worlds leading hepatologist base their finding. Doctors, researchers, and real time trials have decided this. There are other sites where doctors have the same opinion regarding when to stop treatment.
The good people here care alot and sure don't want to see anyone jeopardize their health or their future chances at treatment. As always one should consult with a Doctor before deciding anything.... Wishing you the best in your treatment.
Karen,
I keep my legs well hidden. Trust me, no one wants to see these legs. No jacket and tie and shorts fashion faux pas for me! I also don't wear socks with flip flops you'll be happy to know. ha ha!
Since I am on disability it is a chance for me to wear my best clothes.
Funny story...I got listed for a liver transplant at a transplant center back east and always used to dress up for my appointments. I used to go and hang out in the cafeteria a lot while I waited for appointments or tests. I can't tell you how many times the cashiers thought I was a doctor or worked there (employees get a discount on the food). All because of how I dressed. I am 59 years old and an a WASP like most people at this very New England transplant center so...Although I couldn't flash my legs or bat an eye I still was able to use the "apparent" authority of being a 59 year old professional to my advantage without saying a word.
Bottom line: If it works for you use it.
And I didn't even have my voodoo dolls then! Look out I got my mojo working now and I am ready to conjure up some spells. ~~~~~~~~~~~

But Karen, I'm a Beach Texan & not a Big Hair Texan!! WAIT! I know, I'll put my librarian duds on & give him THE LOOK like I give the kids that are misbehaving in the library if he doesn't listen to me. I'm thinkin' I'm gonna fire him. I'm calling Vertex 1st thing in the morning. Thanks again every one.
Well girl, almost ALL of the forum experts have weighed in. :D There are always options. Hector, you crack me up. I do the same thing. I dress to the 9's for every lab n Dr. appt. Drop emotion at the door and go straight for logic. Give you a chance to show those legs in a nice skirt. haha!
Remember, in Oklahoma, lipstick and mascara are considered war paint. You Texas girls can do that. Tease that hair a little? :) Dream sweet. Karen xxx
