Thanks everyone! It feels a bit strange not having any pills to take this morning but I guess I’ll get use to it.
Just been relaxing in this glorious autumn weather as Ariel pointed out. A long sunset walk on the beach yesterday which I wouldn’t have had the Inclination or energy for 6 months ago.
But off to see a friend’s son’s band release their new single tonight. Personally I would have been mortified if my parents tried to attend something like that but they seem relaxed about it……or maybe they are just resigned to the fact we’ll sneak in anyway!

I don’t post on here much and I regret I haven’t contributed more to the forum but I periodically check the forum and I’ve always admired your posts Gaj. You are an awesome contributor of information and I have so much respect for you and others, along with our hero Dr Freeman, who give so much time and effort to help people, big cheers to you.

8 May 2016 at 3:17 pm #16835Hi Gaj and best wishes during the next wait.
Couldn’t think of much to say, though I did notice Tricia’s comments.
You have 865 posts onboard – 99.9% of which are calm and wise and supporting everybody else here.
Many thanks for being here.
Yours
Jeff

MY ETERNAL GRATITUDE TO GREG JEFFERYS & DR FREEMAN12 May 2016 at 10:11 am #17011Congratulations Gaj, I’ve really enjoyed your posts. I got to EOT at the end of April and am also feeling a bit strange without my evening tablets. After 24 weeks they had become part of the daily ritual (apart from the times I got settled into bed and had to get up again because I’d forgotten to take them). Good luck with the next bit.
12 May 2016 at 1:49 pm #17034Hi Gaj , hope you are feelin fine!
Hapi trails and best of luck on lifes journey12 May 2016 at 3:27 pm #17038Thanks everyone.
Coral, I’m feeling the same about lack of pills. Keep ‘remembering’ to take them with a jolt then realise I don’t have to any longer.
Hi Juen, you must be about 4 weeks into your Tx now. Hope everything is progressing well?

I must be a great feeling to finally get rid of this insidious disease.
Thanks for posting all of your insightful HCV information and tips throughout your treatment … it has been very helpful to me. It’s guys like you that smooth the ride for us newbies. Cheers GT
