Week 40

Woke up today feeling great. Depression is gone! I feel like dancing. Life seems to be wonderful again :-)

Week 39

Still depressed

Week 38

Depressed.

Week 37

I can't believe it's week 37, it means that only 11 weeks of the therapy remains. Wow! Time flies when you are having fun :-)I don't have much to write about. And as about side effects, I had a couple of headaches last week and dry skin in the corner of my left eye. I still go to the gym nearly every day, trying to put on weight as I lost 9kg.My appetite increased, I can eat a horse most of the days :-)My hair stopped falling out, which is great news. I lost about 40% of it and was getting depressed because of it ( hair-loss is the hardest side effect, no doubt about it)I try to rest as much as possible as I do get tired sometimes.Otherwise Im ok.

P.S. by the way, I bought myself a new Ipod :-)

Week 28 - Something to smile about.

Saw my nurse yesterday and was given the most amazing news ever - I was undetactable on the 10th of August - week 24.

Didn't know how to react... I was speechless at first, then started smiling as if I won a lottery. I was still smiling when I left the hospital, smiling while driving home and probably smiling while being asleep last night LOL

The bad bit is that my weight is at its lowest - 63kg, it means that I need to take less tablets now and try to eat as much as possible to fatten up.

The most important thing is that I feel fine, feel healthy, feel as if I was given a new lease of life....yes, definetely, I have something to smile about LOL

Week 27 - Swimming with the white dolphins.

Im back in the UK, had the most amazing holiday ever. I didn't realise how much I needed a break, I was deflated and fed up after my 24th shot of Interferon. Now I feel much stronger mentally and phisically to carry on with the therapy.

Week 26

Hey guys, Im away till the 31st of August. I have no idea if Im undetectable or not, my blood test results will come back in 5 weeks time from Nottingham Hospital.
Right now Im chilling out by the sea.... working hard on my sun-tan ... my mobile isn't working here... I have no internet access in my room... time kind of stands still and I love it :-)
I started reading books again... what an achievement!!!
Hope you are all well.
Loads of love
