Hi Terry,

Good to hear from you. SVR life sounds good and the platelets will gradually creep up. Enjoy!

Hello Terry, Nice to hear your Turqoise involvement. About week 2 in  I had terrible problems with my swallowing. Felt like something was twisting and turning inside me. Then it subsided with the bloating. Totaly gone. Can't really pinpoint yet if Vikera-pac has any side effects though for awhile. With the Ribavirin added it really complicates my conclusion.

       My wife and I have been journeying to Quinta Roo Mexico every late July  for the past 26 yrs. helping locals with the Federal/Green Sea Turtle recovery. Property owners must dig up and remove to a safe sanctuary and document any nest eggs. My wife is just so thrilled attending the release of the hatchlings . It is quite rewarding after all those nights up till dawn waiting and watching. Keep On, Good health.

I have not posted on here for some time although I come on to hear all the great results you are all having. It seems a long time since I started on my Abbvie Turquois clinical trial and there were some interesting times with that Ribavirin but that is all in the past now and things are looking up. I ran into some digestive problems for a while but started taking a product called vegi greens and it seemed to get that back on track and haven't had a problem since. You know how a lot of us don't consume enough of that green stuff so this combines all of that into a drink form. I also take another product called phyto berry and that takes care of the fruit end of things as well. So far all of my readings have returned back to normal except my platelets that are now at 144. No where near as good as Malcolm's but better then they were. I have returned to playing slo pitch baseball at 60 years old and enjoying the extra energy I now have. Golfed in Mexico and just came back from a trip in Osoyoos BC and it was HOT. I have not had a fibroscan yet but have had an ultrasound and so far everything looks good. I am so thankful to all of you that have helped over the years and wish you all the best.
