Guest guest Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Hi , to day was a real fast day at that hospital, usually things tend to drag. I had an echocardiogram apt. at 10:30, which gave me just enough time to grab a cup of coffee, and eat a sandwich, as I was to take the pills in 2 hours. I didn't even get to sit down with the coffee and get the sandwich open, when they came and got me, wow! I was out of there when my apt. should have begun! Dr Talpaz is very elated with the pcr results, Jan.5.09 and June .102. I asked him if I was doing well on 15 mg, did I have to go to 30mg, and he said definitely NOT, if I was doing well on 15, I could stay there. I was pleased to hear that. I truly do not want to increase the dose . My labs are all good, even the hgb is over 11. I do not go back until Aug 3, but will get labs done here from time to time. That's it for now, Jackie and Beth, I hope all is well with you.
