I'm on #19,only 29 to go after tomorrow. Yeah it's

not as bad as I expected but I'll be glad when it's

over. I'm a genotype 2b so I have a good chance to

respond. I'm in a clinical study so I'm on it for a

full year if my body can take it. So far the bloodwork

is holding it's own, so I'm doing good. Plus I have a

real positive attitude about it.

Teah, I think you get used to being tired after

awhile. It's only when I try to do as much as I did

before treatment that I realize I can't any more. My

worst side effect is the headaches but I don't get

them as often any more. I think the peg-interferon is

more user-friendly than the old interferon. I feel

lucky I wasn't diagnosed until it was available. Of

course I would have been luckier not to have this.

I'm so glad to hear that you and Terry are doing so

well. It gives me greater hope if I have to re-do the

program. I was on the 3 shot a week combo and it was

pretty trying. They didn't have the peg available yet.

Of course I'm still hoping I never have to take it

again, but the results weren't as good for the old

combo. It was only about a 30% shot at a long term

response. Now that I have achieved at least the short

term response, my odds are increased to 50% that I

will remain in remission. -dz-

Surprising he never told you that. Most of us are type

1, either 1a or 1b, which are the more difficult ones

to treat. I guess type 2 and type 3 have better

response rates. -dz-

Don't feel bad, I'm afraid I could never remember all

all. (which I am doing now -dz-

It's good to hear something positive about the

treatment. I like to hear when people respond. The

best thing about the peg is being once a week ,I start

feeling really good by Tuesday and great by Thursday.

Of course then you have to start the cycle again but

at least you have some good days.

Jan, yes my driver is Jeff Gordon. He's not doing well so far this year. I thank the new one motor per race weekend rule is hurting them. Before they had a practice motor, a qualifying motor, a race motor they even a back up race motor. They just haven't figured out how to do it all in one motor. But they are not the only teem with that problem, their are several teams having the same problem.

I have faith in god, that he is going to give me what I need to handle Tx & my work load.

I was wondering if Diane got bumped off the list again. Does anyone have her E-Mail address. I thought I would send her an E-mail but lost the address.

Sharon I agree if we were all lucky none of us would have this. But like you I wasn't diagnosed until we had the peg-intron was available. I haven't had any bad headaches so far.
