Not to worry I will still be around--still have 4 weeks to go. Seems like the tx has saved the best for last! LOL!

The hands are better--just kind of stopped --it has been really strange. Now it is just constant headache--of course sitting through 2 days of a Texas lawyer talk about Special Education Law in a room full of principals and superintendents is a recipe for headache.

Hooray for the last box! I'm so happy for you! It has been a long journey. I'm glad we were able to share it. I just did my "halfway" shot last week....last box is a long time off for me, but I am inspired by you!

Just ordered my last shipment too- last injection will be August 3 and last Riba August 10! I'm super itchy and bumpy, even on palms of hands. Maybe because summer is here?

Yay Shep, last box..... very exciting. I think it's funny that whilst doing this treatment I actually look forward to the the next shot as it is another one down. Life generally seems to rush by too fast but during this chapter I am willing it to rush by faster, it is a shame really but there is reasonable rationale to it.

I'm counting for you- FOUR...............THREE...................TWO...............ONE, Blasting OFF and getting on with living whoo hoooo

 

This goes for nohcvforme & wilson dog too, super heros

That`s great Shep, the end is in sight at last!   I`m glad you`ve got some relief for your poor hands, and freebies are always good for brightening our days!  aww

Take care and all the best of luck with your labs next week.

Thank-you guys! Can't wait for everyone to place their last order!!

Saw the PA--she is awesome--they were worried that uric acid had built up but it looks like something else--just major joint pain. I think my thyroid meds need another adjustment. Go for labs on Monday. But bless that woman--she found some topical meds to rub in that have eased my aching hands somewhat. If it gets worse--then have to go back & she was talking about maybe quitting early---have mixed feelings about.
Anyway.... she gave the medicine & did not charge me for the office visit. Then went to the grocery store & the produce guy gave me bananas for free. It been my lucky day!

Ah, Shep my friend. This is a great day. I will open my next-to-the-last box of pegasys and riba tomorrow, so eight more weeks to go. I am so happy for you, and I'm really not that far behind. And yes, what a trip it's been.

Wow! What a feeling--so happy to place that order--almost cried.

Now--waiting to go to the doc--my hands were not getting any better--swollen and painful. So broke down & called --they said come in ASAP.

Oh my--it has really been a long journey


 Shep, I can only imagine how happy you must be!     I hope that the doc can remedy those swollen hands.

Right on, every little bit gets you closer.  It's all about the small milestones.
