Liver doc appt

Well looks like I am going to start treatment again soon. This is a study. I will be doing the high dose of interferon the rebetol and a new medication added. Protease inhibitor I believe. Not sure when I start but they will be contacting me soon enough. Dr said if I don't do something to try and beat this beast I will be there on his transplant list eventually. So okay. I try again. An 80 something % rate of killing the virus.

I also saw the orthopedic doc last week and was told I needed bilateral hip replacements. Arthritis and bones spurs. The bone spurs are impeding movement like door stops and causing pain. I'll wait on this until I see what happens with treatment.

I am really not looking forward to this. But gotta try I suppose. One more time. I have to work. Have to. Cannot afford to miss work. Dr says he will help get me through the depression, rages, and whatever else that comes along. He will help with energy. So what does all this mean? Is he going to turn me into Juday Garland. Meds to treat the virus, meds to get up and go, meds for depression, meds to control rage if it comes, meds to sleep. By the time I am through with treatment I'll be in a straight jacket to get off meds. LOL Not really funny. But I gotta try he says. *sigh* So I'll try.

But I have felt so much better mentally off the meds. aaahhhh I'll make it. God is in control. I believe that with every ounce of my being. Everything is going to be just fine.

I have a good husband. That helps. A lot. And he loves me and I love him so all will be okay.

Well Moses is bring me his toy to throw so he can run get it bring it back, squeek it, fight me for it, throw it again.

Toodles for now.
