good news

Just thought I would share some good news for a change. just had my 12 week blood test (really 14 weeks because I was away) and came back undetectable. A reason to keep moving forward with this lovely treatment.

Been more tired then ever recently I think maybe mostly due to a big trip I went on for work, because the rest of my blood works are fine/unchanged.

As I mentioned earlier was itching a lot recently and with the advice here I started using goldbonds triple action, which seems to have helped the itch but I now notice my skin is drier then ever. has anyone else had this reaction to goldbonds?

got dumped off a shetland pony when I was 5, dad made me get back on and ride 11 miles home.  Two days later they took me to town to Doc, broke my elbow..... can you imagine how guilty they must have felt??? I would work it now, then I was to naive...

glad your feeling better...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!  Your on your way, this is great news for all of us to hear.  There seems to be a lot of good news lately and I hope it stays that way.
Hope the sxs aren't beating you up to much.  The gold bond worked for me too but I had no problem with dry skin,etc.

I lube up on a regular basis with lubriderm with oatmeal.  Its 108 here today, so you can imagine, plus our water is so highly mineralized, its like bathing in ocean water.  Lubriderm is working well for me, now the dermagraphia from the extra riba-thats a different thing... 30-40 minutes after I take the riba, I go to itching, skin feels like its crawling, and if I DARE scratch, i break out in hives that heat up, raised bright red welts, itch like crazy- oral benadryl is the only thing that helps..but it is kind fun to write F*** Me on my bu tt in hives.... we have to get our jollies where we can these days...
btw, congratulations..... to your health...
