    Thank you All.

    Alsdad- no, I have a hospital appointment next week, but doubt they will change their mind. You know what they like. I plan to ask them for bloods and after 4 weeks my GP. In the worst case we have PallMall. I’ll need your advice for that later, if you don’t mind. :-)

    Jolie – good luck to you too with your tx.

    I’m trying to find if it is ok to take antihistamine tablets with Twinvir, as I need it to deal with my eczema.

    Does anyone know if it is safe to take them on tx?

    Dan,

    Is is not a good idea to take antihistamine during treatment. Take as few other meds as possible.
