Guest guest Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Hey again Group!! I popped back around and lurked here for awhile!! Now I have a question and a bit of catch up. I've been on the Clinical Trial for the new Trio coming down the pipe soon and only have 6 weeks left!! It appears that at least at the DNA level I am negative for the virus. However, I was also told in late October, that there is a good possibility that I have developed HCC. I've tried very hard not to think about it much and just get through to SVR with the virus. Then, today, I was called to confirm another Cat Scan in January regarding the tumors that have been seen. It's just starting to make it all to real!! If this indeed comes to confirmation that the tumors are growing, are they going to want to do yet another biopsy in those two areas or actually cut to my liver to confirm?? Also, this time (2nd) on treatment, I had an extremely difficult time with my emotions. Sure, we can blame it on the Riba Rage; but, it doesn't make it any easier to live with. I was already on Celexa as an anti-depressant, then had that upped to taking a 20mg and a 40 mg each day. Still, I came very near having a break down!! Finally my Dr. put me on a Happy Pill (Wellbutrin). I hate all of this; however, I know of no other way to get through the days... I'm not generally a depressed person; however, between the meds and the rejection by some family members, I was definitely at the end of my rope. Would just seem to me that I would rather they didn't have to cut me to test the tumors, since we all hear such horror stories about the air getting to cancer. Then again, I don't know if it's even possible to do a guided biopsy to those two spots.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 hi gloria, i am sorry you have had such a hard time, treatment didnt worked for my husband peg. and riba. he had to stop per dr. i think these treatments might cure some peoples virus but also dystoys something else. seems to me they should be able to do a guided byopsy, we do have the technology i would think, when you said the cancer/air thing i gasped, is that really true??!! bobby glenn has always insisted his mother died because when the dr. opened her up to get a tumor out of her leg ,the air spread the cancer and he killed her. he was only 15 when she died so i thought he was just a kid mis-hearing the adults. i guess he was right? i am praying you recieve good news after this next scan in jan. ,sorry you have been so sad ,but remember we are all here for you no matter when or why you need us!!! all my love barby, keep us posted please > > Hey again Group!! > > I popped back around and lurked here for awhile!!

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Wow! It sounds like travel is difficult for you. Does someone take you to your dr. appointments, or do you drive yourself? I hope you are able to have someone with you. I can imagine how difficult it must be to go it alone. Jackie From: Gloria <gadamscanyahoo (DOT) ca> Subject: Hello To: livercirrhosissuppo rtyahoogroups (DOT) com Date: Wednesday, December 2, 2009, 12:02 AM Hey again Group!!

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Jackie I think that I am extremely fortunate to have been picked for this clinical treatment even though I don't live in Vancouver itself. Yes, any day that I had to go over to Vancouver and that includes a ferry ride, because I live on the big island off the coast, would take us a minimum of 12 hours. However, for whatever reason, a whole lot of people seem to want to flock over here to the island on the weekends and don't seem to mind paying the exorbitant cost for it. So, it was entirely possible to miss a ferry and have to wait another two hours for the next one. Yes, I have always had somebody with me for all those trips. Mostly my husband; but, even my mother or a cousin/friend. Needless to say, hubby will have to come for these next trips coming up next year. In the beginning, there was no chance at all I could do the trip alone! I would get so tired even before we would leaving Vancouver, that I set up a bed in the back of our SUV. That way I could sleep on the way home. I do better now; but, still could not do it totally alone!! I need someone to at least talk non-stop too so that I pay attention to the highway.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 Hi Gloria, it's good to see you back but I'm sorry to hear of the tumors. I have no knowledge to impart but I wish you success in reaching SVR. I admire anyone who is willing to go thru the H^^L that can come with tx. I was offered the clinical trial you're on but tis not for me. I hope the Wellbutrin will help. I've heard good things about it. Best wishes~~~Debbie > > Hey again Group!! > > I popped back around and lurked here for awhile!!
