Hi Coral thank you so much for your sweet words. I really appreciate all of your messages of support especially given everyone has been or is going through the same shit always hopeful they will give it a last wave goodbye or even a boot up the arse!
I promise I am not being lazy bout writing on this forum although sometimes when I see all the messages flying to and fro, I do feel I should come on here more often!
There is so much to learn from you all so very much to read wish I could lock myself away from everything for a few weeks and just take it all in but life just keeps on pulling me away so guess I will do all I can to keep in touch and see how everyone is getting on. You are all so brilliant, open and kind makes me want to spend more time here!!!!
I often read info I wish I had noticed at the start just have to try and keep up! Easily distracted!
Have noticed over the first few weeks on meds that my brain just gets more and more foggy!!! Wondered if it shouldn't be having the reverse effect!!!! I have always tended to forget where I put things but now if I put a letter down for example for a couple of minutes I just can't fuckin remember where it is!!! I loose my glasses which I have always done but don't even remember if I have taken them downstairs, don't remember even going there!!!! Chaotic is the word. I watch the look on my son's face and my OH and see they are quite bemused and frequently amused! I say good to laugh great medicine
Just somewhat worrying tho!
Trying to keep positive, yet each time one of yous gets the dreaded detected after all the weeks of taking meds it brings me down to earth and reminds me that shit happens to people often the best. This is not 100% certain and we all are aware of it but it hurts no less when it happens. I wish everyone who is starting re-treatment or awaiting it finds the 'golden pill' that works for them. The new drugs coming along sound hopeful especially for the G3s.
I send everyone my love and admiration and thank you all for being such a warm caring bunch of people. You always raise my spirits even those of you experiencing all the crap this virus keeps chucking at us! I know I know I am gushing now!
Thank you
Nadia
