Checking out the transition of this blog into Google's new standard, hopefully it will I'd hate to loose all. Making sure of TXU bill, which Encore is apart of it. Needing to watch out payments, another year of paying for the car, I'll be glad when that's over.

Can't follow the instructions for linking current blog to the new an unmigrated legacy Blogger account, but for now it seems to be working will continue to figure it out. Feeling a lot better after quitting the meds and saving money for blood work.

off meds

In order to obtain a perscription which cost $2500, I've come off my Hep C meds. In order to gain some strength. Should try for dr's office this coming week and blood work.

electric blanket and other items

Got a new ele.blanket and having issues with it resetting after 10hrs.Trying to find out how to find and obtain the union pension I supposedly had gotten after 5yrs of faithful service to Verizon Fios.

Still using victrellis

Went with new supplier accredo. If not the cost of meds is about $2500 a month, and since I'm out of work due to the meds this really helps. Still waiting for ACTS, VA to update with insurance info or availablity. I will say the fainting seems less and less, which is great. My taste and smell are not getting better though.

Hep C meds

I have been taking the Hep C meds (interferon injection and 1200mgs of Ribavirin) and have been dealing with severe (my opinion) fatigue. Lite headedness and a feeling of emptiness, always. I need to take a sleep aide and Hydrocodone to be able to sleep for about 8 hours, then upon waking I call into my job to 'call out sick', I only drink water and occasionally orange juice. I have no appetite. 

I have been off work now for 3wks, calling every morning, now I have a new shift 12:30pm to 9:30pm with Saturday and Sunday off. I checked the bank and see a deposit for $6.55, maybe it's a mistake - I hope. 

Hep C

Well I started the medication for Hep C, and had chills, fever and bone aches for about two days. The rest of the week these symptoms discontinued. Now the prevalent issue is total fatigue, flu like symptoms and because of this I haven't taken the chance of driving to work. An hour and a half in traffic isn't something I want to challenge just to 'suck it up' as admin suggests I do.
I have contacted my doctor about the issue of fatigue, the nurse somewhat excited 'most people only experience this for about a day', thus an appointment with him 09/07/11. Hopefully he can contact my work with an explanation of issues associated with the medication. The nurse for Pegasys says symptoms usually last a month until the next new additional medication which starts 09/23/11, we shall see what happens.
