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?

Timedog I didn't notice that the Gold Bond made it drier = what made MINE drier was the DANG RIBA.  Maybe you can try the Aveeno for during the day to moisturize and the GB at night for sleep or something?

Did you try using the GB several times a day?  I have to keep a good covering on it on all of the time or I dry out FAST, like I put my skin in alcohol it just goes shrinking and wrinkling and itching about.

The MORE I moisturize the better I find my skin.

I spent 3 weeks in china not 1200 miles in a car amounts to the same thing.

I know dry skin comes with the treatment just wondering if anyone else found that goldbonds 3 action made their skin even drier/even while helping with the itch.

as for praying not my thing.
