    You are right Vororo, to put the name “Independent” in inverted commas. I am alays rather suspicious of any private enterprise calling themselves ‘Independent’. That paper has a few good reporters, but at the latest GE came out last minute for ones chums in the Gvt. I’m not against private companies making money, but at the expense of the healthcare of the people and reaping financial rewards at the expense of sick people, is quite another.

    Their report above is for the few, not the many, but sadly doesn’t surprise me.

    Sadly, the current UK government are running down our once great NHS, attacking the hard-working staff and causing many hospitals to go into ‘special measures’ – ie failing. The Ambulance service is at the point of collapse, appointments and operations for serious illness are being cancelled and yes, they are restricting many medicines.

    My local hospital is the latest to go into ‘special measures’ – Staff moral is very low, many becoming ill with stress, like many teachers in the state education ststem, illness’ caused by stress.

    There is a crisis is social care provision, elderly people blocking hospital beds as no care available in their homes. A & E patients lie in corridors for hours on end untreated, ambulances queue outside as no beds etc etc This Gvt want it to fail, so they have a case for introducing private insurance schemes.

    It’s shocking and depressing for many of Her Maj’s subjects. Regression, not progression.

    Many of us have known this for some time, the general public are just starting to realise the reality, it’s a badly run system at breaking point. OK if you’re wealthy / young enough to pay something like BUPA.
    I hear they’re setting up a charity for the baby-boomers, to help them as they get older, as this age group won’t get insured.

    This will affect HepC age bracket in particular.
    Sad times.

    Personally, I was refused a VL test this week, even though I saved the NHS ££££s in treatment and have not had a test since EOT. The GP surgeries are watching the pennies too. You get a lecture if you ask.

    I know someone with cirrhosis who was only given 12 weeks Harvoni, still detected at EOT they told him he would clear and not to worry. The lack of money is one thing, the lies are quite another, this guy just relapsed.

    Sad song.

    Hey RSF :) Great Alt ! When you get your psychedelic image, are you going to post it here? You know Ariel designed some pretty funky flares from mine :lol:

    But really, the scan is awesome and should mention, no dye needed. Those guys are doing great work.

    Very best of luck for your VL test, but looking good my friend.

    @londongirl

    Hey Berrinice, I also have these, sometimes they seem to get redder and then sometimes they’re ‘quieter’. Would love more info on cause etc. but I did read that they don’t go away once you have them & nobody really knows why.

    What are the symptoms of blocked bile ducts? I know Prof Dusheiko noted my palms with concern, way back when….

    Warm wishes, LG
