Don't know if the war in my body is any less or not, but an undetected certainly eases the war in my mind, and when that is in full assault mode, everything stinks. Same sx's, just less debilitating.

Hi Mike
glad to hear you are doing well. I got a sort of emotional lift after hearing I was UND and it was very energizing. For awhile--then the thyroid skyrocketed and blood levels starting falling and was back on the couch thinking rain was the most entertaining thing I had ever seen. I have learned to enjoy the moments, days of feeling good. There always seems to be something new and different.

Hi Guys,

I've been undected for about a month and a half (give or take).  Since I've been undetected, I still feel the side affects from the drug but the war that was going on in my body seems to have subsided a bit.  All I could do after starting the drugs is lay on the couch and watch tv.  I couldn't read, coudn't concentrate long enough to get through a paragraph.  I'm a person that keeps busy so this is probaly the worst thing that cold happen to me. After a while I got lost in it and didn't like the person I was becoming.  That has changed.  I still feel awful but hopeful and I can even work in my garden; gardening is a big part of what I do in the summer.  I'm grateful but still can't wait for this to be over.  I come off the victrellis on August 10th and Nov. 2nd I'm off everything.  My theory on this is that the war in my body is over but the side affects still remain and completing the 48 wks. is within reach.  Thanks to modern medicine and having you guys to talk to the rest of the trip more bearable.  I'm grateful.  Thanks for listening.  If anyone has had this experience get back to me.    

Thanks,

Mike
