feeling better! getting younger! Mood
Saturday, July 25, 2009 | A General Update story
    went to labs and to see Doctor Thursday!   apparently all is pretty good, my liver enzymes are as low as they have ever been- low 60's I think 40 - 50 is about normal- ( but I definatly am not normal! ) last week they raised peg and rivo, now they have reduced my prograf by 25% yay!!-I hate that stuff!  the Doctor was happy with my results, except for my weight! - VL are nearly undetectable and Doc says our hospital will be using the new pro-tease drug for hepc it is not approved yet and there is no trials on transplant patients- but ias I like to say- "it beats the alternative"     my arm is better, but not right. gonna see a neuroligist in 2 weeks!   feeling almost good these days- only took 19+months but if it wasn't for the dragon meds- I'd feel better than new!      funny thing happened at the clinic, I saw a lot of old staff and patients I havn't seen in a while, and EVERYONE said I look so much younger!  lol!    it's amazing what a year in the pool can do for you!, -I'm getting a little tanSmileand a little younger too!

    Hot damn, that`s what I`m talkin` about, love to see that smiley face, (you look a little green though), and sporting a tan for those impressionable young nurses you sly devil. I think that calls for a new pic!

    Got a question for you. I had Hepb about 30 years ago, do you think that contributed to my cirrhosis? Nobody ever talks about it.

    Congrats dude, keep on the mend. Gotta be almost a miracle to recover from Hepc whilst entertaining a new liver. I`m proud of you!................Jeff
