Thank you all Post TX and anyother questions

Thank you guys,
I finished TX yesterday. I feel so relieved now. No shot tonight. I have to say the positive attitude made all the difference in the world. For those that don't know me I'm 2B VL 1mil+ Grade 3 Stage 4 52 yr male. I did 24 weeks Pegasys/Copegus. Go for PCR Monday. I was undetectable at 12 weeks. I want to thank all you guys out there I couldn't have done it with out all the knowledge I recieved from this family. Now the wait to see is I'm 2B or not 2B. My mind is making me feel good. I'm going to do something outside tomorrow. I know I don't have any strength yet. I just want to go outside and enjoy the sun.  All you newbee's it is a real roller coaster ride on TX but it does end and it works most of the time. Keep on fighting. We are the Pioneers and Warriors.

Love Peace and Happiness.

I'm new and going to start tx in May.  I have been researching and reading your experiences during tx and after tx.  I am apprehensive about working during tx.  I have to say everyone's comments have both scared and inspired me.  I found out about my condition during routine bloodwork at work.  What a shock.  I am a 48F, 1b, 4.2VL, G2S1.  I have gotten all my preliminaries done in order to begin tx (CXR, PPD, Liver BX, eye exam, labwork).  Waiting for semester break in May so I can be out of school to begin tx, have recently started working on my Master's.  Thank you all for sharing your experiences for those of us who are about to begin a difficult time in our lives.

Thank you for you responses. I'll still be here. There's alot of folks coming aboard that will need support. I know now with the experience I can contribute to their needs. Lots of water but don't over do it. Positive attitude. Keep your mind occupied away from the meds. It is doable. Also know there are alot of us that made it.

Hey, glad to hear you finsihed treatment. You had good results and certainly helped your liver out by treating. Enjoy the sun and don't stress about the PCR (yeah, right) -- don't stress too much.

Your friend,

Scott

Good work Jim, always enjoyed your comments. It sounds like you are on the road to a healthier and happier life.  I'm confident you will be a SVR in the near future, so 2b or not 2b will NOT be the question!
