| Hi Debs Back home & haven't got much further re VitB12 & which ones to buy , will persevere! Very fatigued & brain-fogged last night & went to bed early, woke up at 2.30 am very hot, but it was a heavy - going weekend. This morning am feeling zippety-dooh-dah again, lower back pain still there, but otherwise still much more energised & cheery Hope you're doing well Debs?

Sorry LG, seemed to have missed a few posts recently. Yes a bit foggy sometimes also, strange, was standing in the kitchen on the spot for ages in a trance and then just snapped myself out of it! I was thinking of literally nothing! Weird! Going to GP re blood pressure tomorrow as its 160 ish over 90 something ish quite a lot of the time. I knew the half dose wouldn't work, as I've tried that before, don't know why I didn't get myself organised pre tx and change bpmeds in advance. Also, the GP doesn't know I'm on the generics. So Think I will ask for a script for b12 also, I already get a Vit d script. Sorry, I really should be updating on my thread, but yours is the big comfy living room! Strange about the sweating and heat you describe maybe it's the battle, being lost by the virus How are you getting on today? Going out now, back later, Ps will Deffo update on my thread next time, shouldn't hi jack yours xxx Geno 1a, F1, tx naive, had it 35 yrs.

| Hey Debs, You hijack away - It's easier to keep up with and as we're both running parallel lines with me only a few days ahead (can't believe it's day 12 aready!) it makes sense . Sorry hear re BP, hope you get that sorted soon. Have your info ready for the GP Re 'space-out' - Yep this happens to me too (the M& S incident springs to mind!) Just thinking nothing - drifting - Rather nice really (if slighty worrying at times!) - Who needs meditation when you have Hepcivir -L Just finishing off the B12Complex- Think I'll just go with that unless I hear otherwise.

| Hey Ariel, Good to know you're alive and kicking after your scary adventures ! I am without headaches, thankfully. BP haven't checked recently, whenever I do it on local surgery DIY BP mschine, it's very high, thenI see nurse and it's fine! Decided one BP machine arm-tunnel thing is not one size fits all! Will check on next Dr visit. My heart rate is usually on the high side. Skin ok apart from rash right hand middle finger which has varied slightly from the one pre tx & looks worse that it feels. Hair - A bit dry. Nails growing like crazy (WTF?) Seriously speedy am after taking pill, turn into Super-woman! Brain-fogged / tired out in evening. Only one night-sweat A little insomnia & a the odd 'vision' when falling asleep. I kid you not ladies - I AM GETTING FAT ! I cannot stop eating I tell you! I am still really feeling this cold weather though, heating up full, in thermals & a blanket & shivering . Yep - We're all in this together (Sticks finger up at British PM) BIG GT1a Dec14 F2/8.7 VL 900000-2.5M Jan16 Hepcivir-L MonkMed/Redemption Baseline: VL 913575 Alt 76 Platelets low Wk2 VL1157 Alt 23 DET Wk 8 VL 32 Alt19 'In the slow lane' June16 Fibro 5.7 F0/1 LIF 1.5 Wk 11 VL<12 Alt 13 Det/Unq Extending tx 12 wks Mylan Sofo/Dac MonkMed Wk 14 VL <12 Det/Unq Wk 16 VL UNDETECTED Wk 22 + 4 Wks Sunprevir FixHepC Wk 24 UNDETECTED Alt 13 Wk 12 post tx SVR12 Wk 26 SVR24 Thank-you Tim, Dr Debasis @ MonkMed & Dr Freeman @ Fix HepC |

| Shame about headaches, BIG glass of water at bed & BIG glass immediately on waking? Maybe the heat is affecting you? Do you have air con? (not that I like aircon, but sometimes essential) That smoke from fire can't be helping at all Buy some pure lavender oil, sprinkle on pillows or diffuser in room? Just a few ideas I find help I can feel a headache 'lurking' on waking, water gets rid of it. Also, is your water good? Funny re fingernails isn't it! I have a huge appetite !

| Hey Debs
Well done, hope that does the trick for you - I'd be interested in the home BP monitor, apparently they can be problematic re cuff size and give a false reading, but if it works, maybe I'll get one too ? The 'self-service' one at the GP surgery always gives me a high reading, go into nurse, and BP fine! So I've given up on that one, it is very large and I am very small ! Day 13 here, same as, nothing to complain about and put in request for first bloods on tx (!)

Ooooh LG - exciting for you, first bloods on tx! That sentence is one to savour Re the bp monitors Omron is a good make - I've borrowed mine from a friend but will buy one soon. The doctor agreed but said most of them are good now as they are "calibrated" ? My last one was a lloyds pharmacy one and there was a choice of a smaller or larger cuff size that you could buy separately. It was a cheapie one - think it was o.k but not as good as the Omron one. Feeling fine, nothing to report! That's good ! I'm just taking that h&b B Vit complex again as the dosing doesn't seem to be huge. Are you continuing with the Lamberts complex?

| Honker said Thanks Honker - Trying my best, but 'It ain't easy' ! Day 14 - Nothing much to report, leg tingling (not unpleasant) right after taking pill 'Harvoni High' after taking pill (energy / smiley face) Going to Drs to pick up my blood test request slip today, nervous but excited . Hope they don't make a 'dogs ear' of it when they take blood this time, last 3 tests have been distressing, the most recent causing a large hard lump on needle site, huge black/yellow bruising all down arm & pain for 2 weeks! Still, looking fwd to it in a perverse way !

Hi LG, I used to dread blood tests for the same reason, but lucky to have highly skilled technicians in Bangkok where I have been going for the annual checks. Hope for success on the first attempt!
