Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Hi all...It's true...you really can teach an ol dog new tricks. I've never subscribed to a chat group before, but here I am...enjoying all the correspondence and camaraderie that you folks pass back and forth. Your stories are more than just insightful, they are written with a passion that must only come from having one's back against the wall. Another new trick for me is having to deal up close & personal with mortality...just as you all are doing at this very moment. I was diagnosed with hcv 1A this past summer, and like so many of you, have probably had it for 25 years without any symptoms. I start treatment next week and have many obvious apprehensions of the side effects. I understand that everyone reacts to the treatment to different degrees. Can anyone pass along any words of wisdom? How can I, and anyone else still sitting in the starting blocks, be better prepared for round #1? Doctors, the internet, and friends of friends all have their version of what to expect, but I want to hear from you...the people who have walked the walk. Your strength humbles me.Thank you all...
