> > Hi. Talk about anxiety!!!!!!!!! I got the results back today on my latest viral count, you see, I found out last fall that I have Hepatitis C. The brand I have is the genotype 1B that is MOST resistant to "treatment" and it indicates that this type is most likely to get liver cancer. In Dec. my viral load was 930,000. I guess that's fairly low. They don't even want to talk interferon until it's over 1,000,000. I found out today that I'm at 1,700,000. I'm taking the herbal protocol as reccomended in Stephen Harrod Buhner's book "Herbs for Hepatitis C and the Liver". I'm in this civil lawsuit and decided last week my health-whatever I have left of it-is more important than winning, or even exacting justice. So we've been talking "settlement" for the last 2 weeks. I'm so upset with all of this I've had 3 periods in the last 30 days. If any of you guys pray, I sure would appreciate some prayers because I sure am scared!!!!!!!!!!! My sons are grown and I live alone, otherwise I might consider going the interferon route. The OTHER thing about that crap, aside from it being ineffectual in 60% of the 1B genotype, is that it can cause horrible depression. It's not advised that those that have a history of mood disorder get treated with it. I'm not sure Selegiline and DLPA can stand up against that!!!!!!!!! Other than that I'm just fine! I'm 47 and my blood pressure is 110/70, my cholesterol is so low it's in the adolescent category. I walk about 6 miles per day. Pray/meditate, eat lots of salmon and oatmeal (not simultaneously!), I have a juicer-I juice carrots, redbeets,apple and celery EVERY DAY! I'm trying SO HARD to be healthy and strong to deal effectively with reality as I "know" it!

>Hi WC,
Hope everything goes as smoothly as possible. I agree with Kara, sounds like the right decision just to settle. Wishing you all th best with your HepC battle too.
That link you gave

..I was just brwsing thru it and at the end DrBob dies...I was wondering what of and if he was following his protocol?..just doesn't give me a lot of confidence
"In order for these anti-aging ideas to be successful, you must use supplements of the highest quality. Dr. Bob often said, "almost all supplement companies produce poor quality." You can consider the product page of this web site. Almost all the products met Dr. Bob’s approval. Since he passed away we have attempted to keep the same high standards"That viral load would have to have some effect on anxiety, and obviously is the thing to work on reducing. I don't know anything about HepC..other than it would affect the liver. Good luck with your treatment for it. Is your doc going to try Interferon now? Youc ertainly sound like you have a healthy lifestyle/diet! I'll have to try harder with mine.
