Well today I finally got enough jam to get dressed and bundled up and braved the cold of winter. I shoveled 3" of snow of the side walk and porch, removed a foot of snow off the hood and windshield of the truck and a few other things out side.It was very cold here today  with a bad wind as well. I had good energy but doing the shoveling of the side walk and porch had me gasping for breath but that didn't take very long to normalize. I have noticed since  Monday that I'm no longer  having COPD attacks buy walking upstairs to bed. Still fatigued in the evenings and the body demands I lay down and rest. and that is what I off to do now, night all. Cheers.

good to here vern, my results are not until Feb 23, going through the same as Teddy Trout and with winter almost here need more rest to do the snow thing and careful driving doing all the to do things with divorce, we beat it and now we need the rest to get us back in  shape

My recovery is definitely coming along after that 48 weeks. think I have been off 3 weeks now. Finished  assembling  the living room fan and in stalled the lights and have install a new bedroom door and jam set and repaired the floor I had to cut out to fit the door. I have been able to do some shopping an some carpentry work, very limited though. I get about 5 or 6 hrs of slow motion work done before I have to crash out. I just have to watch how much I do and not to drive in the afternoon as I'm getting tired and fatigued, I found that out today. I was not able to keep my judgments  and attentions focused. I ran a few yellows/reds and didn't see that there was a turning light for on coming traffic and ran the ed, I was lucky as the fellow that had turned seen me and stopped before he hit me. Still have problems with shortness of breather if I do any thing physical like walk up stairs to lay down. i have been having naps most every afternoon from 4-6. I'm need to go to bed now and I hope some of this made some sense. Cheers  

Very nice Vern, i also got a 6 month test coming up soon...All the best to you..~Bob

Congrats Joanne and Vern, every success gives the rest of us hope. :D x

Hi Vern,

Good to hear from you buddy. Congrats on SVR. Now go and get stuck into those bass. Enjoy a great HepC free life.

How are you after all those bloody drugs?  I'm still stiff and sore after golf but gradually improving. Cheers mate!

Congratulations Vern!!!

48 wks of tx definitely paid off!!! I'm happy for you! Happy Fishing!!! Now go out and get the BIG ONE!!!

Tim, you're right I haven't been around lately. Some of it has been fishing and having far to much fun. But, another part of it has been consciously avoiding the whole issue on having C and recovering from the 48 weeks of large amounts of deathly pills and injections. Waiting the six months out has been hard. Out of sight-out of mind. Thank God this is over. Now I can do my part to help others.

Vern, that's great news! Those Component Result printouts are suitable-for-framing. Good to see you on the forums.

Excellent news, Vern, so pleased for you!  Congratulations on SVR!! 

Yes, that 6 month wait isn`t at all easy, and what a weight off your mind it must be getting this brilliant result!  Great to hear from you, keep in touch, we miss you!  

Hey Vern- Been awhile-missing your humor. Congrats, so happy for you!  

Congratulations Vern! I can only imagine the joy and surprise you felt when you got past the first line of the report. Do you have a celebration planned for the great news? You deserve all the enjoyment your body and mind can handle!

This is what we are shooting for.  Yippee
