Cannot really sleep, nurse got blood results and with the two shots  of Eprex Hemo not going up but comming down still.  Down to 70 so the set up a transfusssion for am at 8:30 said will take 6 to 8 hours depending how doctor wrote it up, I guess they are giving me two bags. I started out on 7 pink pills and was dropped to 4 or 800mg a day and I am 240lb nurse was really proactive I am sure gald I fired the first one and went with someone knowledgeable and effical.  still taking the peg once a week but still not on the Vic and into week 8, nurse said maybe I may be lucky and be one of the old 50 to 60% cure rate just on the peg and rib, but the way things are  going we will have to wait and see, All the old AA slogans are kicking in but still after 25 years that little damn hamster can wake up and get on that wheel and start spinning.   Talk to you in an other 24

Bill and family
