My husband is in week 32 and as all of us are counting down the months, days etc. What can be expected after the treatment ends as far as the side effects. He has had pretty much all of them along the way. Has had a real hard time of it. Any advise?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
If you dont' get a lot of response, try posting using the "advice" tab at the top of this page...
Lots of luck---and even more love to you guys as you do this thing together.

All three of us are nonresponders and we don't know that we will ever try treatment again. Not unless they can say for sure we will be cured. Best of luck to your husband and a speedy recovery. Peace, NoniLv
It's weird, really weird on that first shot nite when you don't have any shot to do; you almost feel stunned, lost, because for so very long you have basically done the same things on shot nite. You think, now what?
I started to feel WAY better the very first week after my last shot and no more pills. It just dawned on me how my energy came back - like a tsunami - it just flooded over me.
Then again, I did NOT have any big horrible sides so maybe that's why I felt so much better so quickly.
So you tell him to start making his happy plans because he is going to be feeling a heap lot better and quickly too!
