Don't mention those cussword deer. Only if I have my youngest grand daughter with me do the little barstools appear and then, when I raise my camera, off they trot, swaying their azzes like the car advert

Great news I’m going to ask to reduce ribavirin also just 6 weeks to go.

How are you feeling otherwise

They’ve only let me do it because the last blood tests show virus gone. You must stay on them till then ... I found after a month that things levelled out ... I had good days when I probably did too much and then some bad ones followed. The lack of sleep and the constant diarrhoea were the real bug bears, and that dreadful tired heavy feeling. You haven’t said your age, I’m in my 60s and I care for my husband so not a good combination for being on a tiring treatment. Much brighter today, managed a good walk with dog 🐶

If your viral olad 0 then ask about the Ribavirin being reduced, I was on 5 a day and now it’s only 2. I am sailing through the treatment now where on Monday I actually broke down in the nurses office as I was so exhausted and ill

I know what you mean about exhaustion being sick for so long drags you down was the nurse of any help sometimes it’s good to vent . I have never been this weak or sick. they say I can take 2 instead of 3 ribavirin twice a day I’ll give it a week 6 weeks to go 🤮😱
