earning a living,

This is not about Hep C. But I do have that too. I finally found a job. Yea. Im on the verge of loosing the farm. But now I wont. The hungry horses will be fed, so will the goats,cats and the dog which has the job of protecting the chickens.  Its been so hard, I had a good job (well ? but it paid the bills). I got a H20 shut off notice, a banker on my back, an elec bill, and a phone and internet bill. Now halelula it will all be taken care of. oh yea my husband demanded I quit my job. Then when he took a job he spent his money on bars, and left the farm hanging in the air.. And of course he lost the jobs... Im so happy.. I have not had a real job in a few years. I have not had a higher paying job since I left Nevada.Im back!!!!

OOps oh ****. Some med aide I am... I was so excited about the Job that while I was getting my pills , I spilt out a few extras. I did'nt know what was what. So I hung on to one and kicked the rest aside. I took to Bms secrete miricle pills(this is the bms791325 trial) I have 2 bottles of them the pills look the same. I have bottle a and bottle B. there eighter Placebo or 75mg. I thought I had it right so I took them with my 3 riba. But then I got to thinking did I do that right?To make a long story short. I took 2 more, this time making sure I took one pill from bottle A and 1 from B. Now I dont know what ive taken, It could be nothing but placebo, or it could be as much as 600mg...I might kick the bucken any second. Mike if your out there help me, this may be worse than smoking a joint. I may turn yellow, like the one dude in the last study who was taking 900 mg. I cant turn yellow, I just got a good job. And a nurse is driving all the way out here tomorrow to take my blood. There gonna know what ive done. The only way they would not know is if I had 2 bottles of placebo, but still there would be a 2 pill shortage. plus these 4 extra pills, I have in a celophane....Im still alive.
    Please somebody tell me they too have done something this stupid..Well I guess this did wind up about Hep C. Crap! does it always have to be about hep?
       I have a job!!! Only one more glitch...But as I always say "Where theres a will, theres a way"

I never have anyone to ride with and have 2 horses so I don't ride much.  My chickens hide their eggs too plus as they get older (3 or 4) they lay less.  I WILL have a fenced in coop in the spring.  Check your hay loft for the eggs I found about 5 dozen last fall in the hay.  There is pictures of my animals on my page.

Don't you have to keep a medication log for the study? Sheesh, I have to write down ANYTHING I take, whether it's the HCV meds, an aspirin, even my daily vitamins. How much and exactly what time I take them.

If you do have to keep a log, make sure it's accurate and up to date. Not following the instructions of the study staff (like keeping accurate records) will get you booted.

Ill get a pill dispenser,  Thanks GSDgirl. good advice.
   NYgirl7 aka deb. I dont believe it, the phone rang, dude says Ginger, hi you probally dont remember me, my name is Jerry B------. I said "My first love" wow its been over 35 yrs? I cant say how young I was, but we just talked, and he mentioned the fact that he could of went to prison. I must not of been that memorable. I remember our all nighters till the sun came up. I remember all the rug burns. and I remember the very long X I did'nt have the nerve to actually do it. Heck back then I thought a H.J..(hand) was the same thing as a B.J..lol..I remember he slept with my mother and my sister. While I remained a virgin. I dont know what I was thinking expecting a young man to be faithfull to me , when I wasnt putting out...Gee I should of reminded him about the time I had my little brother **** in a beer can and I gave it to him after he was inebraited. Back then the guys put a hole in the bottom of the can and chugged the whole can. He puked. He was cheating on me. lol...Another time I had my little brother deficate in his boot. He put his foot in, then he reached in and put it on his nose to smell it...eww. yea he cheated again....He is good now been married 31 yrs. still in the same business, has a 27 yr old boy in colledge and a daughter getting married next year. his parents and brothers have died. And he read about my sister, mother, father,and my brother dying. And he knows tanya is still missing... I just cant believe it. He read I had Aids, I told him no I dont have that , I have hep and Im in tx.. I guess Id better becarefull what I post. Im new to computers, only had this one since april. first internet experience. I blew it I told everybody I had hep C...But oh well. they can like it or hate it. I hate it..
       Lawyers, no luck with lawyer. I would not have been set for life anyways...But I got a Job and thats a start. I will be more carefull w/the meds. oh yea my cat who does no wrong(The Peanut) always tries to get up in my pills too. She thinks its dinner time. So that was a distraction also. Later Ginger

Ginger,

Dont worry you are still new to the game there is plenty of time for sides to come and kick your butt - trial drug or not you will know that you are really on them most likely.  ;)

Dont worry about the extra pill I double dosed a lot of time with the two different meds (no trial drug but if it was that important you not take one they would not be letting you give them to yourself). Really talk about finding big time Famous Lawyer you would be set for life.

Great news on the job.

I know all about feeding the horses, chickens and dogs plus us.  Glad you got a job.  Why not use one of those weekly pill dispensers, that is what I did and it worked very well.

Thanks, still alive over here in oklahoma.  havnt looked in the mirror yet to see if im yellow, but my hands look ok. umm coffee.  Life is good...

     Thanks Trinity4, your right mam, glad you got your picture back. I thought you were gone. I couldnt remember the 4 behind trin and thought it was another Trinity. Yep Im large in charge. And I was a certified med aide, so there is no excuse, other than we all make mistakes.

     Dave, thanks I write it down and will continue to do so. Heres a bit of advice for all. This is how it happened ,  3 bottles, the riba looks different. A and B bms look the same. When I take a pill out of one bottle I cap it and put it up. (thats good). But then when I  went to shake one out in my hand to add to the other pill on the table. A whole bunch came out in my hand and on the table with the other pill, and they all looked the same....So from now on, not only will I put up far away the bottle i just got into. But I will also put up the pill from the last bottle.  Looking back. The right thing would of been to give back all those pills to bms. And start over. But with the high of employment, and the many years since I was a certified pill pusher. I forgot.  Also in the retirement home where I was counting out a fist full of pills for 50 oldsters. Had I dropped a pill on the ground or had that happen. I would of simply thrown them away and logged them. I did not remember that...Maybe I need a med aide to come here and give me my pills...Oh and I feel fine. Maybe it was just my imagination getting away with me...Thanks Ginger

Blondie, you better get your system down is all I can say.  You're the one that is large in charge and you have to keep up with this stuff.  No excuses, just do it.

I record my pills when I take them. There are times I couldn't remember if I just took them to write it down and when that happens I count the remaining pills and figure out how many I've used compared to how many I should have used.

I don't think the extra dose will hurt you, but I could be wrong.

Good luck-Dave

I feel alittle puny, I thought I was going to toss my pills. Maybe its not placebo,? Maybe its phycological? Maybe the pill will work?
