Hi

I saw you Facebook message to me about Medical terms.

If you click here, and look in the HCV Links Library - folder - '003A - FAQ' - you will see what I have collected so far.

http://health.dir./group/ /links/003A___FAQ_001265186877/

If you have something that I havent added yet, please let me know.

You can post the info on forum, and then I can use your post as a link in the library.

It might take you some time to compose the info in a post, but it will be appreciated by everyone as they research in the future.

I can also research the info you give me, and use the results of that as a link.

It will take me some time, but I can do that. LOL :-)

I saw from your FB page that you are going to see your doc about TX.

I know your mind is racing with anxietys.

Try to relax, all will be well. I promise.

You know where I live, my phone #, my email, my FB, etc, if you need me.

I see my H-doc in 2 months about the same thing. Starting HCV TX.

I am already stressing even though it may be many months before I actually do anything.

LOL :-)

Please post as you find out stuff, so we can all share, compare, and help support you.

You are not alone .

love

This may sound funny but I did not think I was really stressed till I saw it in writing on here Don. Yeah I guess I am. I came home from working 15 hours and am still awake from having been awake from 3pm yesterday. Here it is 3pm today. I could not sleep. I layed down and my mind just rushes around thinking and thinking and thinking. I looked through my bosses Mosleys lab tech book and was thrilled with all I was learning and it really did not do me one bit of good other than it kept me busy and I found out something like Alt is a enzime we have too much of or not enough of in our bodies if we have HCV and a ton of other things like that that I really don't need to know because I would not know how to connect the dots with this information anyway. I guess If I knew like what the right levels of these things were suppose to be and what causes them to go up

and down and how I might be able to control them through eating or drugs or suppliments or other meds that I would love to know but just don't have that kind of knowledge yet. Guess I should have gone on to Lab school. I wish I would have been ready for college way back when. Now that I am older I am finally finding myself more interested in this stuff.lol. Last night the pts kept me busy as heck. I had way too much to do with all of them having a ton of problems all night long. I gave one man enough drugs to knock out a horse and he was still tearing up his bed and throwing everything off his bed and trying to climb out of it not successfully. He yelled all night long. I got to get out of this place. I kept thinking of that song. We got to get out of this place if its the last thing we ever do. So I walked in his room and sang it. I did that about 30 - 40 times. By morning he was singing it. Yeah. lol. My boss will be amused. I did good. I left him

feeling no pain.

I just want to do this treatment once. I want it to be successful. So really don't want to do it unless I have tried the one with the most chance of success rate. I will do what it takes to make it work too. I will make it work. I am really not worried as much about what the drug will do to me as to what it might not do for me that I need it to do for me. I have to have it work. I feel somewhat a desparate feeling in me right now. Is that normal? I want them to do what it takes to make it work the first time even if it is hard so I don't have to do it again because I never want to do it again. I suppose I would but don't want to think of that at all.

So if they don't have the newer drug in now I really don't want her telling me I need to start now. I think I am still pretty heathy now. I have been taking it easy on myself and eating good and cut on tylenol stuff and other hard on the liver meds. I did not take the pain meds the KU doc from KU Med Center wanted me to have since it could be hard on the liver. I wanted to last till the new med. So I would rather be in some pain than have to take the wrong tx. Anyway Tomorrow 10:30 is my appt. I don't think I will be starting tomorrow or anytime soon really though. I did my lab work yesterday.

Wish me luck. I want to wait on new drugs. Better chance of success. Cinder
