Hi Jan,

Hopefully things will settle down for YOU a bit too now. You have

really had some hair-raising times lately.

I really do enjoy all the fun things you post, and I will try that

Almond loaf soon. Today is the best day so far this week, cooler,

less humid, and I am recuperating from what the doctor

calls " community pneumonia " though I never heard of that. Our

daughter, her husband, and all 4 kids including the triplets (who are

now 19 months old!) had some kind of cold a week and a half ago, Ron

had a weird cold last weekend, and it apparently went straight to my

lungs, but I'm on the mend, eating lots of my SIL's chicken soup.

Swim a few laps for me,

Judi

Hi What here on the forum upset your hubby? Maybe its something we can straighten out so please fill us in.. Isnt he going to have the biopsy BEFORE he decides to do tx or not? IF he has no damage, he could actually take good care of himself and wait for better tx, especially IF HE HAS to be able to work...Im all for treatment but only if its necessary as I have seen several ppl who had very little damage end up worse BECAUSE of the tx... Im glad you found us,, keep us informed,, hugs jaxrogkatlev <rogkatlev@...> wrote: Hello,I have been reading a lot of the questions and answers that have been posted. They have helped me so much. We should know this week what genotype my husband is and also the viral load. We should have known sooner but the lab lost my husbands blood and he had to have another blood draw so they can run the tests again. He has decided to do the treatment and if nothing changes he will have a biopsy the 31st. Some of the stuff in here upset him so I switched e-mail to my account. He's scared and so am I. Our son is at a conservation camp at this time. He knows whats going on and has been worried also. We told him to go on to camp and try to have some fun. Our son is 15. I sure don't like the waiting we have had to do, but honestly its only been about 3 weeks. I am jabbering again. When I find out more I will let you know. Again, thanks so

much for all you do and all the iformation you have given me. Jackie

Your husband may breeze through the treatment , not everyone has the same side effects . And I know allot of people who didnt have any sides at all . I think the fear of treatment is the worst thing about it for most , once he gets started he wont be so scared of it . And hopefully he will come in and share his experiences and ask questions . Take care .

Just to say Hello.
