You know, I feel better today. Yesterday too. And the day before. Maybe the renaissance isn't over yet after all?

17 Weeks, 6 Days - Renaissance Is Over

It's been a great few weeks of activity and productivity! Almost felt like - a rebirth.  A renaissance, if you will... But today, this week, my limitations have reappeared. It sucks.

15 weeks, 6 Days - What A Relief!

  • Feeling better!
    Oh my goodness!  Who knew being off one drug would make such a huge difference!  I do remember the doctor and nurse telling me that telaprevir is a very harsh drug.  Wow.  I really didn't "get" the impact of that statement until I got off of it.  What a difference a pill makes!

  • When I rest, I'm more rested!
    This is definitely a relief.  During weeks 6-12, especially, rest did not equal relaxation.
