Re: ESLD? Hormones -- Good Morning Kathy B. in Milwaukee :)

[Guest guest]

Great message and subject one that I have not seen addressed in any HCV Grp. and one that should be talked about -- Thank You.

Since I had a hysterectomy than ovaries removed later years ago I never had those problems all during HCV Stages and Post TP.

I have read medical articles about HCV and meds causing hormone imbalances and complications in both men and woman.

It's a lot worse Post TP with the high doses of cortisone and prendisone and other meds that forces many additional sides complications and added dx's.

I was thrown into insulin dependent diabetes for many months Post TP but it cleared. Many have it long term with many complications.

The kidneys and all that they have been through is a big concern and worry long term. Many post TP are now dealing with increasing kidney problems and failure.

But we made it Toots with the Grace of God and very thankful that we did.

I need more coffee !!!!!! That is great for the ole systems.

Enjoy.

Love and Hugs.

Take Care and God Bless.

Dang, Kathy, just cuz I'm slow doesn't mean I wasn't gonna respond! Mom called from Publix where she got her flu shot and said they came up with 100 more shots & she'd stand in line and get me a number if I'd get down there. So I had to leave the computer for a while.

I've got serious thyroid issues now. TSH should be 0.4 - 5.5, and my last 2 were 37 & 77. And it can be an tx issue even for people without prior thyroid problems.

Faith is the ability to not panic.
