Heck girl I am going die, bungee jumping at 105.

I can't help but think that I have had a turn around in health.

Of course me taking care of myself, eating healthier, exercising and such really helped me. I am still going to do treatment again.

But really a year ago, I wouldn't have thought I could work a 8 hours job,5 days a week. I was applying for disability. When I got turned down, I just said to heck with it. I don't need their stinkin help. I know that is the wrong attitude to have, but I am a stubborn mule when it comes to stuff like that. I talked to Jackie, she helped me decide some things and I started working on getting better.

I did start to feel better, and started getting more enegry. I started walking, and the next thing I knew I thought I could go back to work. And I have.

No, I will never work as a nurse again. I have given up my license.

I just don't want the chance to pass this disease to anyone.

But working where I do, I don't have the chance to pass this disease on. I am a desk clerk. LOL

Most of my work is on a computer, and dealing with people. I enjoy it. And heck, I feel really proud of myself.

I am way better than I was 5 years ago, and heck better than I was a year ago.

I don't even need afternoon naps any longer. Although at the end of the day that bed sure feels good.

I am blessed.

Love

Janet

 I said if one of the side effect disease's doesn't kill you first . Those disease's are iron overload , porphyria, cryoglobinemia , kidney disease , heart problems from excess iron etc . If someone takes extremely good care of themselves then they have a great chance of dying from old age but not many people take that good care of themselves (on average , not those that are here in this forum) .

Re: [Hepatitis_C_ Central] CANT HELP BUT WONDER

I'm sorry but I totally disagree with that statement - so many factors come into play - age of infection, viral load, alcohol, diet, severity of other "byproduct diseases", hormones, etc. - so many factors - and as we all know, everyone responds to the virus differently. To say that hcv will eventually cause death from liver failure is completely and totally wrong. Yes, it is a serious disease and one that needs new effective treatments THAT WORK NOW! Meanwhile, there are proven alternative methods that help to protect one's liver and dietary means that have been proven to reduce and reverse liver damage. If what you say is true, folks who have had the virus for decades would all be dead or in ESLD. And that is just wrong!
