Guest guest Posted December 29, 2008 Report Share Posted December 29, 2008 tracey you are doing exactly like you're supposed to hon,, dont push yourself and save your strenght for times you really must have it,, rest when you need it and dont forget to drink your water!!! hugs, jax Subject: Re: Female SubjectTo: Hepatitis_C_Central Date: Monday, December 29, 2008, 7:08 AM Two weeks into my treatment I started loosing my hair by the clumps, I've always had long hair but it is very baby fine so it is thin to begin with. I did get it cut to my shoulders since the ends started looking like straw hanging on my head. After I am done treatment I know it will grow back, hopefully thicker than it was before. I can only hope. I am glad not to have to deal with getting my periods on top of the treatment. Last year I had to have a complete Hysterectomy, the reason for the hysterectomy, I had severe endometreosis. I have some other good news, my procrit is due in sometime tomorrow. I am a little nervous but excited at the same time. I get bloodwork done today again, to see if my red cells have dropped any more. They were down to 9.3 two weeks ago. I run out of energy faster than I used to. I don't push myself either. When I am tired I will lay down and rest. I do what I feel I can do in a day. Tomorrow is another day to get house work or what ever else done. My main priority is to get through a full day at my job. Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 , I KNOW EXACTLY HOW you feel,, if I can make a copy of a pic I had done in Portland when I was 40 years old, its a black and white phote, I look like Liz , but I feel like I was pretty then, now Im old and not pretty.. and 40 pounds heavier too.. but it inspires me to remember that 'at one time' I did look pretty..lol... I'll post the pic if I can make a copy... but remember,, we're not 20 years old anymore ... and its whats inside that really counts! You got it both honey! beautiful outside and on the inside too.. My liver supposedly works alright now but I still cannot shed the weight... so who knows,, hugs, jax> > > Subject: [Hepatitis_C_ Central] Female Subject> To: Hepatitis_C_ Central@yahoogro ups.com> Date: Friday, December 26, 2008, 1:37 PM> > > > > I am on week 25 of treatment and my periods have> gradually lengthened > in duration.
