Congratulations to a fellow Garden Stater. It still hits me sometimes that "I didn't take my meds today. Oh, that's right, I'm done."  Great feeling. Great job getting it completed.  I feel better each day. It took a good couple of months but I know feel I'm on my way to "normalcy", whatever that is.  I know you will exp. the same thing.   Have  great day!

Some years it snows a lot, but most years just a little bit. I think it was 2009 there was record snow here. Something like 90 inches! It felt like I moved to Alaska.

Thanks everyonesmile

The past few days I have been feeling like I am forgetting to do something when I do not take any meds lol 

I get a break from school right before Christmas. Any suggestions on something fun to do? I have been basically cooped up in the house for the past 6 months.

Very well done Iggle!  Congratulations to you!! biggrinw00t.gif 

I found the feelings of relief sort of crept up on me after I finished, we get so used to dealing with tx week by week it doesn`t always hit home straight away.   All the best of luck with your EOT results, you can relax now and look forward to feeling a lot better soon!  Jill xx

ps - You`re welcome to post in the Post Treatment area, or anywhere else here for that matter!

I just took my last 2 little riba pills and now I have finished tx!biggrin

I did the 24 weeks, triple with Incivek. So many side effects along the way: itching, major fatigue(anemia), dizzyness, naseua, stomach pains, feeling like I have the flu, hair loss, fire in the hole, shards of glass, and some others. This is definitely not easy.

UND at 4 and 12 weeks. Tomorrow I take my 24 week labs, and if all goes well one more in 6 months. I thought I would be doing backflips when I finished, but I just feel more relieved to be done.

Do I have to post in the post-treatment forum now?
