Sorry for "misplacing" the message board for a few days in our newly redesigned website. BTW... what do you think of the new design?

I see you!

I also see a lot of new people posting.

Seems there are more and more people opting for the treatment and kicking the dragon's butt.

hey all
i am still kicking!
and have been swimming hard this summer.
did a mile in laps 2 days in a row!!
this last year has been a little better.
i have absolutely no appetite even tho
i may feel hungry~consequentially have lost
30lbs. have 20 more to go as i was hovering around 200lbs.
i will see my gastro doc in the next few months and
will request a biopsy or maybe an ultrasonic test to check the
status on ongoing liver damage.
has anyone had the ultrasound scan? is it more revealing than
a biopsy?
so, with weight loss i suppose i could consider tx again even though
i have sworn to never go through it again~it was sooo difficult the 3
times i did it. i am a proved non-responder.
does anyone suppose there will be any trials open for new stuff
without taking the peg+riba?
i wish every one well
glad to have seen someone ask about me
its always nice.
wheres enojon?
health & blessings to all............................................

Since completeing the 48 week peg/riba TX I'm feeling more and more like my old self. Actually I think I feel stronger now than when the hep c was taking it's toll. I retired in March and I am living the dream. This message board was a huge help during treatment and I pray that everyone who treats wins. All the negative sides are gone and I feel human again.

Here is my update!

I had my bloodwork done 1 year post treatment. By the way, I failed treatment. Well, he said that even though the virus is back, my liver is 100 percent normal. No elevations at all. It was very hard exercising after treatment due to joint pain but now I am in excellent "muscle guy" condition and almost all joint pain is gone. The only lasting effect so far has been some gum receeded problems that I had during treatment. Its stopped when treatment stopped but gums dont grow back. It is kinda minor.

Hang in there folks!!

The fog will lift after treatment.

Here is a web page you might have interest in-->>> http://www.hcvadvocate.org/community/trials.asp <<

Also, you may want to talk with your doctor about a blood test called a "Fibrospect" test. It helps gage the degree of liver fibrosis present and may help in long term followup. It can be a lot more easy to take then a liver biopsy.
