Welcome To My "HEP C" Life

Hepatitis C is a blood disease that affects the liver. There is a tx that I am now on which is a mixture of "interferon" injections 1x a week and 1200mg in pill form of "Ribavirin" dailly. This is an extreme and rigorous 48 week treatment and I have started september 22nd 2006

I awoke an hour ago to find that i had slept throught the whole day. I will try to get to sleep earlier, but i should not worry about that. I find that if I eat an egg with my ribavirin it doesn't do a number on my stomach. The ribavirin has made me constipated. So last night I took some metamucil, and today "the chickens finally flew the coop!!!" Now thats funny, I have to say, that made me smile writing that....sometimes you need that "crappy" humor..there I go again...Ha ha ha ha...

Counting sheep
trying to sleep
hoping to soon
be resting in my dreams
sick of the sweats
sick of the aches
can't wait again
til a get a little break...
