Things remain FOGGY :-(
I knew this probably wasn't going to be a good idea. First blog was entered twice. Then I couldn't find my way back. Then when I got back I couldn't figure out how to do another blog. I think that is the hardest part about this whole Hep C thing. I feel like I am slowly losing my mind. I remain in a constant brain fog. I get to take a wonderful (NOT!) medicine called Lactulose for it but I don't always remember to take the med and if I forget to take it then I get forgetful. Vicious circle.
I am back from Atlanta, tired, lots of notes to write up from the meetings and alot to get done. They were very productive meetings though and I am looking forward to the Hepatitis Awareness Day that we are planning for February 2006.
SO MANY emails to catch up on everytime I go away for a bit. My cats get mad and don't speak to me for a few days and get madder when I sit right down to the computer to play *catch up* and don't pay attention to them.
I got news that my viral load has tripled in the past year. First time this has happened. It has been slowly creeping back since 1999 but always under a million. Close to two million now from 600,000. Not truly significant as it isn't a good indicator of liver damage but distressing since I am unable to use conventional treatment.
I hope I catch onto this blogging thing soon. I hear some of the *best people are doing it* LOL I always hate to be left out of things ;-)
For right now I guess I will use it as a type of online diary. Doubt I will get here every night but will get here when I can.

My First Blog!
I never do anything in a *timely manner* it seems. This will be my first blog! Seems like such an odd thing to start at 4a the night before I leave for Atlanta for several meetings. It seems to be the way my brain works anymore. Keep wondering if this is a *side effect* from the Hepatitis C. I didn't use to do things like this. Did something similar last week. I will talk more about that later. Right now I just wanted to get started in the world of blogging. I hate being the last one on my block LOL
