Yes think of chilling and relaxing!
Are you still playing music at night too?
You have fought so hard and it becomes normal
Doing medicine. U just get thru one day at a time.
We are here for you. I cried out on the forum
Many times. We know how it feels! I was fried at the end
But it's doable and could be much worse.
You are fighting to save your liver.
The end will come!!

I was on the old treatment back in the 90s and now starting the Triple Crown. I remember the dry skin. It got so bad that when I clinched my fists, my hands cracked and bled. I found a cream that was a miracle. It is called "Anti Terge" cream.

Hope it gets better. Hang in there!

Ted

Sorry to hear that you're feeling weak.  I've been there for a while, but have felt much better now that hemo is back up.  Nice Ovation BTW.  Is that a Glenn Cambell?

Hi Brian, sorry to hear you`re having a struggle, a long stretch on tx is a huge challenge, and you are gradually getting there.  So what were your latest blood results, do you know?  Get as much rest as you can.  Take care.

So I've made to the 33rd week of treatment. My SX include dry feeling on all my body. I  tried gold bond medicated, seems to be working but not what I'm looking for. I had a blood clot in my leg toward the end of the Incevek and I now have very had to stop bleeding capillaries. I'm seeing a vascular surgon for this. 

I take the shot on Weds. Night and my worst days are Fri. and Sat. very tired low energy and have to sit down a lot. 

My blood work looks great but I'm feeling weak still?

thanks Brian
