    • About Me

      I live in a small town with my 18 y.o. daughter. I work at a school and make enough to pay my bills and not much more - like most folks. I spend most of my free time with my son and grandson. All in all life is good.

      From MAK1AH Tuesday

      I also recently read that taking vitamin D with treatment helps to lessen sides and make the drugs more effective. I wrote about that somewhere in the discussions. Probably under an H1N1 discussion. Flu shot. Vitamin D boosts the immune system (D3 is the right one) and it's the SUN vitamin. Why people get sick in the winter, the sun isn't so bright. Heppers get worse in the winter too in general.

      From MAK1AH Sunday

      Get another opinion on that eye thing. I had a vitreous detachment in May, clouded the vision in the affected eye, looked like a big dark jelly fish floater and it swirled when I looked around. It cleared up without any eye treatment just fine. Google "vitreous detachment". Best of luck!

      Hey SuBee, did you reach the GBuzz? He knows how long a drive. I'm guessing 90min. Its Tarpon Springs. They didn't answer phone last nite & he isn't on DS much.

    • Close Hepatitis C

      17 years ago I was told I had been exposed to hep.C. and to watch my liver count. So every year I would ask my dr. for the blood work -- I go to a small clinic that changes dr every few years - - the labs came back this time with the liver count high more labs and the dr says to me did you know you have hepC? Its like why do you think I asked for the blood work every year! Thats been a few months ago. A lot has changed in 17 yrs. My liver is a stage 3 and Im starting a CT next week. 9/2/09
