Wednesday, April 2nd 328/336 Shot #48

I couldn’t resist, shot #48 is history. 7 more days of Ribavirin and then it’s done. They say the interferon stays in my system for another 9 or 10 days and then it goes and with it goes my mental illness, I hope. As I’ve said before, this crap really plays with your mind. The Ribavirin stays in the system for about 6 weeks. When it’s gone, my blood counts will elevate and I should be able to breathe and live a normal life. If you’re a Hepsie, don’t do this treatment unless you must, as it adds up to a year in the fog. There are times when you think it will never end and you really get sick and tired, I mean tired like you can’t imagine. Thinking and talking are a hurculean effort. Ok, enough whining, I cleared at 7 weeks and my chances for a permanent cure are quite good, I think around 75%, I hope so and I’m thankful that I didn’t have to go 72 weeks.

All is well and bye for now
