Shot #5 Done....
well shot number five went okay. Metallic taste again but better than last time. I switched from the load your own vials to the preloaded injections. Really tired this weekend but I ws on call at workso I wirked through most of it. Temper getting worse but I am doing everything that I can to control it. Going to call the doctor and see about uping my dose of anti-d's. Maybe that willl help. Got paid friday and its already gone. Pretty sad when you have to put all your bills in a hat and pick one out. Thats the one we paid. This is getting old very fast. I have never in my life taken this many pills, even when I was doing pharmaceuticals for pleasure. I'll be glad when this whole thing is over. I'm still fighting and still getting through each day. barely.......... Doctors appointment this coming friday and will get my viral load checked again. I just KNOW that this tx is working.....

That 5 down TJ - that great. Good that you are seeing the doc regarding the AD\'s as family and work colleagues seemed to bear the brunt of my temper early on.
Good to read that you are recognizing the things that you have done - this attitude is so important. Being male, imo, I do not think we give ourselves enough acknowledgment in that area. Certainly nothing recreational about these dragon slaying poisons.
Best of luck with the bloods next Friday.
Hanging in there my friend, that\'s all we can do when on this therapy.
Yes might be a good idea to talk to your Doctor to up your anti\'s, we have enough side effects to deal with without having some that we can do something about it.
Keep us posted my friend.

one day at the time.
You are doing great. Just remember the \"money\" side of this will get better once this is over. I switched anti-d\'s a few times until I found one that was right. There isn\'t much of a play-book on how we are able to handle this but the end result is worth it. Stay strong and good luck on your labs.
There isn\'t much to say that hasn\'t already been said. Junior, you are doing all the right things.................
Lemon drops helped me with the mettalic taste, and also made me want to drink water!
You can do this! SOrry about the temper, hopefully it will fizzle out..
