1 mth post tx and feeling wonderful - Hepatitis Message Board

It is almost four full wks since I stopped tx and I have been feeling great for about a wk and a half. I have my energy back and am back to going and going like super woman. I sleep better than I have in a few years too. I really am so glad that it is over and just hope that I stay undetectable. For those of you just getting ready to start good luck and remember that there are people that also did it and that do feel great afterwards. I am not taking any pain pills or xanax , which I had to during the tx. That was not all that bad but I had a few bad days of aches and pains and anxiety but it went away. I feel good. I know that right before I started tx my hep must have been very active because my enegy level dropped majorly and I had not slept good for a very long while. I feel good and have a doc's appointment for a viral load count in about five wks. Say a prayer for me as I will for all of you.

I'm so happy to hear that you're feeling better after TX!!
My last shot is 7/6-seven more injections.
I've been feeling so awful-although not as bad as I'd imagined prior to TX. The main reason is my low WBC-even with the Neupogen-it's not come up to normal.
Thanks for the encouraging news!

I am looking forward to feeling better. I am in my 7th week of tx and I "need" to get thru the entire tx to live! I was at my end before the start of tx. My doctor gave me a Neupogen shot on Thur and today I finally feel a small amount of energy. Thank u God!::

Good luck to all of you guys. Tx is not easy even when it is not as bad as we imagined. I hope you all get through it and feel a lot better. It has been really weird coming out of all of that and realizing how much I actually was not myself and did not feel good. I was in another zone it seems. I feel level headed again and sleep like a champ now. Good luck. This too shall pass.
