Pre Tx Brain Fog/sides?

[azgrl]

I haven't started tx yet however will as soon as my gallbladder is out and I have recovered.  I have been reading this site since my diagnosis in September 05.  One of the common tx sides is "brain fog"  I was wondering if anyone experienced this prior to tx?  I have always prided myself on how organized I was in my mind and my memory however slowly my memory is getting worse and worse over the past year.  I will ask my husband a question and he'll say I've already asked him 3 or 4 times in the last hour...but I don't remember asking him.  Thankfully he is a very patient person.  I don't even want to think what I will be like on tx.  The other things I have experienced were fatigue and urq.  I'm assuming these are related to the hepc with the exception of the urq since we found out that was the gallbladder not the liver.

Anyway just curious if anyone else experience these. And no I don't think it's old age....as I will never be old!!  : )

you know it's funny - I always hated those fanny packs, but the way I have been forgetting things lately, it's probably a good idea...I lost my toothbrush last too, blamed it on my husband, called him at work, he got mad, a few minutes later I found it!  It was in a drawer in the bathroom, I had to have put it there and didn't remember...It's actually very scary if you think about it, what if I forgot where I lived and just kept driving around for hours...

Those early TX trips to Toronto could be exciting for you. But look at it this way, you get to see a new city almost every week. Is trip to TO fly or drive for you?

we drive it, it's 4 1/2 hours away by car, it's 40 minutes by plane...I am sure I may fly at some point, my husband can't keep taking tim eoff work every week and they want to see me once a week for the first 6 weeks

hey angie girlie girl, hope you're well today....got a question for ya:

anything you can use on skin to stop discoloration?  I have had so many blood draws, and they always use the same vein (I have twisted veins) and the site is all yellow, I look like a junkie...Also, on my eyelids, it's getting worse, any herb or combo creme you know of that can help any of this?

I drive my husband crazy with the same questions asked over and over, he can
t deal with it...lol

I forgot my purse in 2 restaurants, 1 hospital and a grocery store last week, so it's safe to assume brain fog is a hep c symoptom, and the fatigue is getting pretty severe for me...I had house guests all weekend and I am dragging arse today, can't even walk upstairs without wanting to lay down....
