Congrats Bill, what is Eprex?

 They prescribe it when you develop severe anemia secondary to the meds we're on. Here's a link to some info and I'm sure some here will fill you in with additional facts.

Hey Bill

Congrats on your well deserved EOT results. I know you have had a rough time both medically and personally and it must be hard for you sometimes, but your medical issues will improve vastly in the next 3 months which will in turn improve your personal life, so look forward to feeling the best you have in years

Matt

Thank You all for the support when I needed it the most you were there, This forum also is the most resonable on giving sound advice.  I still remember when doctor was going to lower dosage below 600 and I questioned him why and he came back with you are right cannot go below 600 or no use of the tripple theraphy, Again thank you, and yes this morning it is 3 degrees celcus and getting ready to cut back flowers and garden have to do it and will take longer being still weak, but maybe their may be some cute flower lovers who may give an old guy a hand.  Boy two weeks after meds and already to get back into trouble

Bill and emma and raven

Many congrats to you, Bill, what a fantastic EOT result, so very pleased for you!  

You`ve been through an unusually difficult treatment while also coping with major personal upheavals, but you didn`t give up, you persevered right to the end.  What a strong spirit you must have, you deserve every success!  Great to hear you sounding more cheerful already!   Just go easy and take it step at a time and you`ll soon have that garden sorted out again! 

Sending all good wishes to you, and to your loyal companions, Emma and Raven too.

Hi Bill,

That's fantastic news after a crazy Rx protocol. Give yourself a pat on the back- you deserve it!  Time to relax and look after yourself- 'accept the things I cannot change'. You've had a hard road and best wishes for the VL tests to come. With autumn coming in Sudbury, this is a great way to get ready for winter. Cheers, mate.

Yes today was especially special, got notification that I cleared the virus from blood work August 19 AST level was 35 and ALT  level was 69.  Also got letters from Specialists that they never detected state where I was going to cause harm to me or others, was just sufferring from lack of support and medication effects, should be over soon
