Week 13 and 14

tic toc tic toc...... still waiting for PCR blood work that was drawn last friday, end of week 12. WAITING DRIVING ME CRAZYYYYYYYY! Week 13 was uneventful except for the bone pain in ankles and feet. Did jab 14 last night and it bled a lot. i think i hit a blood vessel. Also forgot to push air bubbles out of syringe first.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i had to step into the jungle just to get my solitude.

i need some juju and i don't know what to do.

i'm tired of seeing clouds when all i need's a drop of rain.

i've got my cuts and bruises, now i'd like to feel the pain.

if the spirit moves you,

if the spirit moves you,

if the spirit move you ,

please won't you, please wont you, send her to me.

well, how do you do that majic?

whats the secret?

whats the spell?

i tried to work it, but i just can't do it well.

i know i'm lucky to be in the jungle doing what i please.

i got my birds, i got my buds, i should just get down on my knees

pleaseeee

if the spirit moves you, if the spirit moves you

if the spirit moves you ,please wont you send her, please wont you send her, please wont you send her to me

send her to me, send her to me

Week 9, 10 11, 12

Rash returned 4 days after i stopped the Prednisone. Headed to Gastros office, who sent me to a dermotologist. Dermo not sure the cause,i'm allergic to something, but would help me manage, so i can continue tx. He gave me a shot of cortisone, which will last 7 weeks ( i will repeat every 7 weeks ) and prescription for daily antihistimines, which is now keeping the reaction at bay. Had my 12th jab Friday May 11th and will have the 12 week PCR blood work at the end of that week,Friday May 18th, that checks the viral load in my blood. This is the big week. i have to be undetectable for the virus in order to continue tx. Those who aren't undetectable at 12 weeks have a 2% chance of clearing the virus, if continued. So doesn't make much sense because of the side effects and with those odds, insurance won't pay. If undetectable, i have a 37% chance. So sitting , waiting, praying and hoping i get to continue.
