Day 67 (24 July '07) Jon's Hepatitis C Treatment

Sorry about the delay in posting - I was away on holiday in Cornwall and did not have ready access to a computer or the Internet. The break was good - even though I had to dash up (by train) to a work related event on one of the days.
Am gradually feeling weaker - it's getting harder to do an manual work (such as lifting heavy bags of rubbish for any distance) without feeling tired and a bit drained. Walking is still fine - I can do a lot of that, but am finding it more difficult carrying my work briefcase around with me for long stretches (it tends to be full with a computer and notes etc).
This is a strange phase of treatment - my spirits are good and I think that I have the "rage" (ie when I get very irritated about something) much better under control. The hacking cough is still there all the time.
But otherwise it is about taking the Interferon and Ribavirin (I have a smooth method of ensuring that I do take them as presecribed) and waiting, waiting, waiting......
