Today I decided that this feels like the very end of the first trimester of pregnancy. That disgusting feeling just before the bliss of trimester two takes over. This is on the good days.

This Saturday morning I woke up feeling a little sick from a cold. The cold and the other sx combined to make me feel pretty crummy. So I stayed in bed pretty much all day, watching TV.

I don't know if you are aware but TX can weaken & damage teeth, I was feeling brave and went for a check up today.

I recently took an std test, and for hep c, my count was .1. The test said anything under .8 is negative, but I am worried that that .1 could mean I have it, and just not enough antibodies have shown up yet to give me positive results. Am I worried for nothing, or is it possible I have it?
