Treatment Week 22 - The Ribavirin Revelation
What a great week!
Felt good all week, been working everyday and just generally feeling fit and well. Exhausted now [Friday 7pm] but to be frank if you have been at work all week and aren’t exhausted Friday then you ain’t working hard enough
Now a confession…I forgot my Ribavirin dose on Monday morning, didn’t remember until late afternoon. That my friends is unacceptable but that said it did give me an insight. I have always felt the Ribavirin, can feel it coming on within 30 minutes after taking it, can feel my brow furrowing, my eyebrows drooping and my face frowning. Its like something is pulling your face down or for those unable to imagine that take a look at your face the next time you are having a good shit [get the wife to hold the mirror if you have too]. So there I am happy as Larry telling the wife I can’t remember feeling this strong, was even doing bodybuilding poses in the living room. Thats what a few hours missed Ribavirin does for me. From that I have learnt to be extra vigilant and to guard against forgetting again but mainly that, in my case for sure, its important to take the Ribavirin 12 hours apart. Gotta keep the magic juice flowing at a constant rate.
So another week has ended and another one begins, current score is Hep C Boy 22 - 0 Hep C Virus.
This weeks inspiration, should you choose to accept it, is……
Who said you have the right to give up?

Now off to beat the kids after reading some tips [rude word warning] from my new spiritual guru….keep the faith.

Glad your doing so well. I can’t recall having my face pulled down by ribavirin, there was me blaming gravity. Loved the ‘beat your kids’ bit. That could cause offence. Hilarious..

“The problem is that kids today think their opinions matter. By not beating your kids, they get a skewed perspective of reality where they start thinking that they have it rough and that they can get away with dying their hair and listening to Insane Clown Posse.”
Offensive, really?

Hi
Glad to see you in such good shape - and taking no prisoners, as usual. Staying cheerful at Week 22 is no mean feat.
Ribavirin Revelation? At the rate you’re constructing ‘the knowledge’ we’ll be calling you Professor HepC Boy any time now.
Wishing you well
Ron
