Re: ny - Stress

December 13, 2010

ny,Lai is right.. stress does kill people.. and to make matters worse, during and right after treatment it is harder for us to deal with stress than it was before. For me, I still have a hard time with stress. I just can't handle it. I used to thrive on stress.. or so I thought. I had several high stress jobs and managed very well for a very long time. Actually, when my Hep C symptoms started surfacing, that's when I noticed my ability to handle stress had changed... hmmm. Hadn't thought of that til now. But in hindsight.... I try to avoid stress but it finds me. It found me this morning bright and early! I thought I was hiding good too! Damn, not so much.

HI Steve,thanks:)yes I was talking with Lai he says stress kills people, I think he is right, I am trying to find peace.What type of vitamins, I hear they are dangerous for Hep C people? Well I just really heard iron and vitamin A were deadly, don't know about the rest.

I am trying to stick with the no salt diet, it is so hard.thank so much:)Hugs, nyOn Dec 11, 2010, at 5:39 PM, schandler21@... wrote:

Take time to heal...your body's gone thru hell over the last little bit, give yourself a chance to recuperate.Please try not to stress over this, stress will slow down and even reverse the healing process.

It is a slow-moving virus, even though you're detectable again, chances are you have time to heal and approach this from a better position, in NJ, good support around you, etc.Stay the course with food, hydrating well, supplements and vitamins if you were doing that already.

Remember what you've learned here and during treatment. And most important, never forget you've got a huge family here that want nothing but the best for you.

SteveLife is much more fun when thought of as a scavenger hunt as opposed to a surprise party. Jimmy Buffett [ ] why would my virus come back?

Hi,I found out today that my virus has come back, this makes no sense, I was undetectable last month!!!my viral load is now 3.5 milliion, how could this happen???????I have no idea what I will do now, been in tears all morning:(

nyI sooo agree with Teri!! I am self-employed as a bookkeeper for about a dozen small local businesses. So, I was always used to stress and actually got more done, the more stress I was under.Now, the least little thing that comes my way with stress, I just end up crying like some little girl and I hate that. That's why this RV I'm living in that is surrounded by trees etc. calms me right down. There is NO stress living here. Well, except for the amount that gas is costing me to go back and forth.Gloria

ny,Lai is right.. stress does kill people.. and to make matters worse, during and right after treatment it is harder for us to deal with stress than it was before. For me, I still have a hard time with stress. I just can't handle it. I used to thrive on stress.. or so I thought. I had several high stress jobs and managed very well for a very long time.

Hi Teri,I hope it does get better :)this is how it happens to me too, I guess lucky I don't stay so pissed off for too long.I am sorry to know you had to deal with so much stress lately, but I am happy to hear that it is okay now`-`Hugs,nyOn Dec 14, 2010, at 9:33 AM, Theresa Gottlieb wrote:

ny,It is so much harder during and right after treatment... eventually it will get better. But yeah, the wind switching directions can bring it on. I know it could for me. Bruce used to say that I was setting new records on how fast I could go from normal to "bitch" mode. Funny thing was, a few minutes later, I'd be fine again. Crazy.

Over the past week, I have had an issue going on over here that has caused me so much stress it wasn't even funny. I made myself physically sick over it. Heck, I was cancelling Christmas over here! The sky was falling! When I figured out that it was something I couldn't control immediately (and I just figured this out yesterday) I finally let it go. So, I'm okay today. Thanks for being concerned.

Hugs,Teri

Hi Teri,Lai is usually right about things :)Yes I think so during treatment & after it is harder, I have such mood swings,the wind can switch directions and I just loose it, I don't know what is wrong with me sometimes!

I hope that you no longer have stress today.Hugs,nyOn Dec 13, 2010, at 6:57 AM, Theresa Gottlieb wrote:

Thanks ny.. it's all good.. although I still don't have my Christmas tree up. Well that's not totally true.. it's up, it has lights on it... and it's sitting there. Not an ornament on it. My kid came up last Tuesday and helped me put the lights on it... and I haven't touched it since. That's about the time that all hell broke loose over here. I'll get on it tomorrow!
