UND all the way girl! This has taken a toll on my marriage (almost divorced in June) and revealed true friendships. Some are uncomfortable with hepc and I learned to recognize that.

Nice to hear your energy has returned. smile

good to hear you are doing better, yes extra stress during and after treatment is hard, but you have the courage and good times will return in time, life is two steps ahead and one back, enjoy the 2 steps ahead and have faith that the 1 back is an experience to strengthen your life, take care

Hi Treatment Buddy! So glad to hear you are still UND! So sorry about the divorce....but keep strong (you know there are great plans for you).

I too am now on thyroid medication for life. I was not happy about this (and still am not) but I am getting used to the daily medication. I have the order to get my 6 month test, but am waiting until next week. I would love to hear good news, but if it turns out not to be good, I wanted to wait until after Thanksgiving to find out. So hopefully I will soon post that I too am SVR.

Hi Jeri,

Congrats on the 120 day post Rx undetected. Time to celebrate. Partnerships that breakup during Rx probably weren't meant to last. Enjoy life.

jeri,

congratulations on your und! how calming those 3 little letters are for us all. so pleased to learn that your energy levels are back on track. sorry to hear of your divorce filing. like jill said this treatment is relentless not only w/ sx but relationships as well. i keep thinking back to willy's advice; if it wasn't meant to be,set them free.

sandy,ucbgal

Good to hear from you again, Jeri, and congrats on your UND result!  Sounds like your post treatment recovery is going very well on the whole, apart from your thyroid problems, and the breakdown of your marriage of course.  I`m really sorry to hear that things haven`t worked out for you and your husband.  Unfortunately it`s a sad fact that this treatment can really take its toll on personal relationships. 

Wish you best of luck with your 24 week viral load result.  Thanks for checking in.. keep in touch, we`re always here!  smile

Hi Jeri and welcome back! I'm sorry to hear about your thyroid trouble and the end of your relationship Seems that we have several members with the same experiences following treatment. I wish you the very best for your future! I'm glad to hear your strength and energy are returning and look forward to hearing about your continued UND and eventual SVR-24! Good luck  biggrin

I have been way too long since I have checked in on the forum. My life has been a bit nutso but all in all I am doing pretty well. My husband and I are still separated and have filed for divorceL. This is very hard on both of us. I am now over 120 days post treatment, happy to say my energy level has returned to normal. I am actually feeling pretty good. Treatment ruined my thyroid but I am on medication and that is now under control. I do have a large nodule on my thyroid that I am going to have to monitor on a regular basis. But I am very happy to report I had my 120 day post treatment labs done and I am UTD! So this is a huge praise! I miss all of you and to all the new people, stay strong and dont give up treatment is hard but so worth it!
