Thanks for the kind words!

It’s sad that everyone who needs the treatment is not getting it, but we have a policy….. saving the world one patient at a time. We may not make a big dent but doing something beats doing nothing.

Is it the same dog that visits every night or do they take turns? Really looking forward to your SVR24 announcement Mrcleanrt.

Hi Mar, They take turns actually. One of the dogs has just completed her second treatment for cancer and she comes in 2-3 times a week. Her sister comes in about the same. It’s interesting, they never come in together. Their both Irish Jack Russell Terriers and we’ve had them since they were 9 wks. They’re 9 yrs now. Such a smart breed of dog.
One more thing that I noticed about the itching is that previous to the treatment, I would spend quite a period of time, before actually falling a sleep, constantly scratching. That is now totally gone! I’m getting a good 7-9 hrs sleep per night. I am amazed at what these pills have done.
Thank you all for being there and doing what you’re doing

The dogs seem very smart indeed, I hope the sick one gets better. Doctor James mentioned before that Hepatitis C is a disease that affects most organs of the body, not just the liver. So it wouldn’t be surprising at all that many of the health issues faced by patients, such as skin issues, will disappear once you get treated.

Hi. I’m really pleased to read that things are going well. I loved your dog story. They are so intuitive.
Good luck with the rest of your treatment.

Hello mrcleanrt,

Itch is one of those things for which medicine has not good symptomatic treatments (other treating the cause).

It’s great to hear that you seem to have found the cause of your itch and that the treatment has settled it.
