    I take a B-100 everyday, has 100 mcg. of B-12. B-Complex is a good vitamin to take, as well as C and D.

    Yep, tablets, sublingual or whatever especially on tx but even afterwards. I actually take only B12 shot and D3 gelcap, I also take amino acids but I ran out. Gotta get more, cause they make me feel better. And who wouldn’t want to feel better. Below is a link on B12 deficiency.

    Thanks again Dr Freeman for another in depth article. I’ll have to read that one in the morning when my brain is firing on all cylinders! :lol:

    Note: While an injection of B12 is the fastest way to get your levels up it can be taken as tablets.

    Personally I prefer the shots, I get one at least quarterly. They make me feel better, especially during tx. Not that I felt bad but they seemed to give me a little charge. Maybe like a double shot Starbucks but better. They don’t get me wired, they just make me feel better for the first few minutes. I just snatched the blurb below from the clinic I go to. You could probably get one from your MD but mine never would give it up, unless I took a blood test and that dog don’t hunt! :lol: I get the $15 one.

    Vitamin B12 Shot $10 Regular 500 mcg shot $10, 1,000 mcg shot $15

    My idea is to get on youtube and when you come across anything about HepC, place information with a link to this website. If patients are interested, they will research and come here. Check out my comment on the one below. I am fathand Robert. Didn’t think about showing only the video. Below is my comment or you can go to youtube and see it. Cheers!!

    Harvoni is not the answer for everyone. Generics are just as good and total cost for a 12 week treatment is less than $2,000. Go to fixhepc.com for more information. That’s right, there is an fda approved clinical trial. It’s called Redemption (etrial) you gotta supply your own doctor to order blood tests etc. Check it out, it’s available for all countries including the USA. Dr. James Freeman is the name to know. Check out the link minus the period at the end. I didn’t want to show a Harvoni video. lol ~Cheers!!

    Name of the video is (Hepatitis “C” is Harvoni the answer?) Had to remove the link, didn’t want to show the video but I plaster comments like the one above. :)

    Hey sheriff, welcome. I heard importing generic HepC drugs to Canada is a huge problem unless you get in the clinical trial. It’s an fda approved clinical trial, Redemption 3 (etrial). You gotta have your own doctor to do the blood work etc. On page 5 in the bottom link is a fellow Canuck for you to hit up, he offers info to fellow Canadians. good luck!!

    And Fretboard- all of that public display of remains is not cool here anymore, was offensive to the customs- all body parts have been brought back here from museums and interred properly respectfully etc BUT I did help once with the recovery of koiwi ( human remains) from a burial site on an eroding cliff- was so interesting, may have dated from that period as above of first settling. Perfect teeth.

    Cool! I knew in the 1800’s or so the practice of preserving heads by the Maori was outlawed but I didn’t know all body parts were destroyed. Makes sense!!

    Thanks for posting Hazel

    Good place for a comment bomb “BOOM”!!

    Absolutely, great link and opportunity to post a comment! Personally, I think if you’re able to post a comment you really should! It’s a great way to advertise for Dr. Freeman, Redemption etrials and generics in general, free advertising!!! Good way to tell Gilead to kiss the booty!! Go Team, go!! Thank you much for the link Hazel!!

    If you are less than 18 hours late take the missed dose now.
    If you are more than 18 hours late skip that dose and take the next dose as usual.

    Wish I knew that, I would have asked her how late she was. I was only late 10 hours once and I just said heck with it, in fact I called Gilead and the guy told me to wait till my next dose!! Arghhh! Hope I don’t relapse! Ouch!!
