Hi Rochelle,
Welcome back. May I ask what levels are high? I have different levels and the one I have to watch is with my Hep C. I keep a close watch on my viral load. I am under 200,000 right now and the doctors say not to worry unless it reaches 1,000,000. I did have a liver transplant back in 2006 because it was completely destroyed by this virus. I learned a very valuable lesson. Medical science is wonderful and many strides have been made. I also know that the final decision is not theirs and my attitude holds a lot to do with my recovery. I do what the doctors tell me and I keep a close watch on the medical proceedures they ask me to do. If there is any doubt in my mind, I get a second opinion. I even go for a third if I am not comfortable. I also go to the great Physician for the final decision. This keeps me doing my part and feeling ok with any outcome. My biggest failing is to keeping my weight down. This is hard. With the new liver and the meds I am on, it is next to impossible. I never had this problem before and I need help to get thru it. I am doing some different weight watchers stuff and walking a lot. Sheesh....its hard. But, just in case I need another transplant, my chances will be better if I have my weight down. I find that I do better with the support of others that do relate to what I am going thru. How about you? What symptoms do you have and what do the doctors tell you to do? My only real symptom is getting tired very easily. Thanks for posting and I love the new name....kewl beans!!
