Wednesday

Hi all

I am going to a specialist on Wednesday at Cedars Sinai, I want to ask all the right questions. I know that I am 2B and have 2/3 liver damage.... I hope to start treatment the begining of July (after I get back from my Italy trip).... does anyone have any good suggestions on what to ask. This is a Hep Dr and she is in touch with the most up to date treatments. I start to think of all the things I want to ask her and my head swims......

Glad to hear you feel better about things now.  It takes some time but everything starts making more sense and eventually we just do what we got to do.  It's good to know you are more comfortable with this doctor.  That's very important and I wish I felt better about my doc but I'm already in the throws of tx so we'll see what happens.  Now you can really enjoy your vaction and know when you get back you got to start kicking some virus butt!!!   You sound so much better now and I think you got a good handle on things.  Best to you kid!!

Went to see Dr. Winn at Cedars Sinai today, I am so happy that I made that decision and did not just stick with the local liver specialist. They were awesome and I feel so much better about everything...They feel that I have good chance of clearing the virus being 2B.... and I have on other health problems and am at a good weight. So now I just get to wait until the begining of July to start Tx..and start thinking about my trip instead of this $#@% invader..

They were impressed by how much I knew and that I had copies of all my records... I told them that this site is lifesaver and I am not sure I would have done as well as I have done over the last couple of weeks without it.

So thanks to all my new friends on this site. You are all the best.
