this note to all ever heard of the smallpox study in zaire the congo??? they are saying the hiv came from this smallpox vaccine..immunoresponses from vaccinations when a child and interestingly enough  was okay  for years until i went back to finish clinicals for rn and had to get revaccinated again for all my childhood mmr. etc.....had smallpox and polio when child  shows my age and just curious...thanks for being so nice to me  i needed that

I've been looking but must have blanked out because I thought you were still pos at week 12 but not much off the target. Why did I think that?  Can you refresh my dead brain again?

EVERYONE has different sides and there is a chance you won't have them with the Infergen.  If I relapse or have a breakthrough I am going to try to go on it myself (my thyroid makes things tricky since the Int. killed it off).  I will DEFINITELY doing the Infergen/Riba treatment if I have to.

IF it's too hard you know you don't HAVE to stay on it.  You have to think of that. Also...what stage are you? Do you HAVE to treat right now or do you have time to see if the Vertex or NM pan out?

Sorry I just simply cannot remember your stats. I've never ever been good at it and only know a few of them in here. It's just too much like studying in school...I could never remember any of that either!  :)

Smile 'stang.  Remember....you aren't alone and we are all here rooting for you all we can.

well i did link to the infergen and as i read i started to cry again  no big deal i am on anti depr and mood stabilizer and now i guess i have to come to the realization that sx sides are going to be there and to deal..scares me thinking of the infergen but gotta do what gotta do to kill this virus...why can't they just locate the gene and give something to assist rna from replicating it?? i hope i can hold off on the infergen..does anyone know what they mean by "coarse liver?" i watched my ultrasound and my liver looks like the moon ..craters etc...just wondering  when i ask the doc they  keep saying coarse and i feel stupid.

Hey sweetie does your doc have you on an antidepressant? It REALLY helped me a lot to deal with stuff...I mean I don't notice any difference but I nkow that i do NOT freak out and get depressed about stuff any longer. It's helped me SO MUCH to deal with all of this treatment here.

I believe it is probably infergen, and I know there are many others here who have experienced that tx. Someone will get back to you, I'm sure. In the mean time, try to stay positive-- I know that's not always easy-- and come back and tell us what's going on. I am sending good vibes your way. God Bless.

from a fellow hypoglycemic, hope you feel better soon...hope you eat every 21/2 to 3 hours and get some protein and complex carbs in the little snacks you eat throughout the day, if you do suffer from low blood sugar, stay well...you'll be okay...
