Thanks for the info. Yes, I am on a ad. The doctor put me on efflexor my first week of treatment, it did help me. I guess at three months into tx and feeling the sx , I am searching for that groove that will make it as easy as it can be. So if I can start with getting some good rest hopefully some other areas will get better.Thanks and best wishes

This tx does alter many things.  When I first started tx, I took tylenol before shots and usually for 1 or 2 days after.  For me, this was a steady routine for about 8 weeks.  After that time period things got milder with the sides and I did not need as many.  Every now and again, I have to take tylenol for mild headaches, but not often.  On the sleep, my doctor let me take tylenol pm and it helps.  Check with your doctor and find out.  I was also given permission that if need be I could take a sleeping medications off the shelf/not prescription.  I have used that a few times; with doctors permission, worked great, just take it early enough that you are not groggy in the morning.  I am 34/48 on Friday's shot and I seldom need to take anything for sleep anymore.  Although, if need be, I will.  
Are you on any AD's yet.  I noticed that once I went on AD's the restlessness lighted up alot. You might check with your doctor on those rescue drugs.

Good Luck,

Cajun

Why can't you eat shrimp? I think as long as it's cooked it should be okay. Snook posted a link the other day about cooked seafood and how cooking it kills the bacteria. I got some tilapia today at Costco. I'm looking forward to eating that!

I didn't know the CDC was saying that. That is ridiculous! Without the testing of young people, how do they know this? As we know it takes some 30+ asymtomatic years before they discover they have it. With the CDC saying this, it seems like we don't stand a chance of anyone taking this virus seriously.
