    Hey Fret,
    I will loan you my Profunnel if you like and send you the empty “00” capsules as well. ]

    wow.gif Yeah that sounds like a great idea! I’ll send you my address as soon as I figure out how to PM you, sometime within the next hour I’m sure of it. :lol: Hey Mike, did you have any sides at all and was this your first tx?

    I bet your already cured! How do you feel?. :cheer: :+1:

    No, thanks for the good wishes but I didn’t start yet. Just got my 00 capsules today, get my size 3 within a week, see my doctor on 4/18 and sometime after that I will start knocking back the caps. tmoney-2.gif

    So WTF is RTFM?
    I’m a doctor by trade but a programmer by passion. RTFM is a geek thing. Here’s the meaning:

    Holy crap you can’t say that. Well actually you can, and it needs to be said. .

    Good for you for keeping it real! Gotta love a doctor who’s not afraid to tell it like it is. thumbupp.gif

    I wonder if the generic rebels presentation will be televised or maybe downloaded onto youtube? Just wondering, this is exciting news for the cause!!

    While the content is under embargo (so I can’t spill the beans yet) I am happy to report that the adventures of the generic rebels will be presented at EASL as a late breaker on 16th April 2016.

    Go generic rebels!!! Glad to hear generics will be getting the spotlight! :cheer:

    Hi fretboard,
    For your capsules please read the Compounding section of the site paying particular attention to Dr James’ pinned section at the top which contains advice on the correct quantities. http://fixhepc.com/forum/compounding.html

    Will do. :)

    [/quote]The rest of the posts there have some good detail on how various people went about the process. One aid to filling the caps which I believe is available in the US is the Torpac funnel which Mike (mgalbrai) recommends. http://www.torpac.com/%5B/quote%5D

    Handy looking funnel, I was thinking about using ear spectra but the Torpac looks like a much better idea. :+1:

    [/quote]For your oedema (swelling) I’m assuming that your previously mentioned GI doctor is aware and managing the situation. If not please seek medical advice about it.[/quote]

    Oh yeah, its been happening for years so both my doctors know about it. I get a prescription of Lasix for it. I appreciate the heads up you’ve given me Gaj.

    Hi Fret,
    I had horrible reflux. I was taking 3 prescription meds and still ended up eating one day and fasting the next so I could sleep. Two endoscopies and one 24 hour reflux study later, nothing was found to be amiss. (except HCV) Mike

    Yeah Mike,
    I believe that totally, can’t wait till I don’t till I don’t have to deal with reflux any longer. Thats gonna be great!! Also, my feet, ankles and hands swell like crazy. I’ll be glad when that stops too! ~Cheers!

    How are you making your doses?
    Mike

    I’m gonna buy a new scale and some caps and presto blamo, serious capsules of cure, ready for the taking. :lol: Im guessing #3 caps for the Led and #00 for the Sof. Will I need anything else?

    You will be better using Sof + Dac rather than Sof + Led and a PPI.

    Yes Doc,
    I think you’re right, too bad I already bought the Led. Live and learn, I guess. :oops:

    Great! Much appreciated! I’ll check this out right away. Any idea what alternate ideas I could use to deal with the GERD?

    Wow! I really appreciate all the responses!! This forum is Super!! Do I have to worry about being on 40mg of Pantoprazole daily because of absorption issues? Do I need to stop taking it? Take it less? Its for GERD, generic Protonix? I did some testing on myself and Ive determined that I will be alright if I take it once every 3 days. Is it best to just stop taking it when I start tx?
