Just a quick note to say hi! Just want to tell you personally that you have been such a inspiration to me during my tx adventure☺. I finally made SVR. You carry such a knowledge of information of this monster, and your "tell it like it is" nature is so refreshing. Thank you for being there and taking all your time with helping others.

Just a quick note to say hi! yup sounds like u forgot briefly to take care of YOU. i think this is hard for moms. steroids can make u feel like riba. i guess u can at least be grateful the course of treatment is shorter! take care and thanks for all your contributions. be well, babs

Hi ny,
Was it you who mentioned some delicious cocoa type drink that you love? I thought I had bookmarked it when I first read of it, but I guess I didn't. Can you remind me?
Thanks!

Thanks girlfriend! Good to see you too. And good to see Jim. Btw, I know about the finger stuff, I read it all. Just felt like commenting on it. I meant what's up with all the ppl fingering prostitutes. Who on earth would want to stick their finger up someone's a§§ and pay for it too. This world has gone crazy.

Hi!
Who is this mhudnall guy? He appears to be trying to stir up trouble.
I'm done. Life is too short, especially as I am decompensating and trying to save my own life. :)
He can believe the moon is made out of cheese for all I care. But it is too bad that some uninformed people may take his advice and end up hurting themselves.
I've always appreciated your wisdom and insights over the years.
I am getting listed here at UCSF and then going back to CT to get listed at Yale New Haven because the wait is shorter there and my family is in Norwalk and Bridgeport. I hope to get a transplant within the next 2 years. My wait for telaprevir looks over now. My MELD is 18 and my doc will only treat me if MELD in under 20 a year from now.
Take care.

Just a quick note to say hi! wanted to thank u again... i will check insurance for wig, they did pay with ca but i assumed that was different as everyone loses hair on adriamicin. have a good weekend as i enjoy yet another lesson in patience!!!

Just a quick note to say hi! one more thing...hair loss; do u find that most women get wigs and lose hair early? i tried on a few yesterday and liked the $450. ok but the rest looked awful. i wore hats when i had chemo but my face was 11 years younger!!any hair advice for me... i know this is not crucial to treatment but if i look awful i feel worse. also in older folks like me at 64 i sure hope the hair grows back as some of my contemporaries are losing hair from age!!! i am lucky to have only a bit of gray and fairly thick but fine hair. thanx again, babs824

Just a quick note to say hi! support group was good and Dr. Wu is fascinating. he told us about the new pipeline of drugs. it will be so much better for geno 1 which is most americans as new meds will raise response rate. for me geno 2 there are no current changes. some good advice from meeting participants and i am more hopeful. i hope that the meds come soon as i am ready as i ever will be to get rollin. more later, babs

Thank you for everything! thanks again. i was sooo inspired by the triathalon guy! i see this is very individual. ca treatment was less so but since i did better than most i will plan to continue with my luck. tonite i am attending a support meeting at uconn and dr.wo (sp?) is speaking. i have read that he is a top doc in hepatology. i will let u know if i learn anything new.

Thank you for everything! yup i do believe knowledge is power and docs know much less about sx than u might expect. i found with cancer that the nurses had the info! the physical effects do not scare me as much as the mental as i have a poor memory to start with chemo brain on top. i just do so not want to out live my brain. i doubled my adp so i expect i will be ok but impatience could be an issue with me on a good day! i still have pretty much decided that i will begin when ever the ins. co gets me the meds. they doubled the cost of the effexor when they doubled the dose!! that kinda pissed me off as i dont think it cost 2x as much to the pharmeceutical co. i sure hope they will cover tx! thanks again for your feedback. i may see where the hcv local support group is soon. thanx,

HI Deb. My littel microbe is on my bathroom counter. His little yellow eyes get real dusty. I keep wondering what the woman thinks who cleans my house. Ha ha -- secrets secrets. I am glad you are doing so well
