The eve of week 48

I haven't blogged since week 44.......I have been too tired. I can't believe tomorrow is my last injection!
I have fired my doctor in the past couple of weeks...I would absolutely suggest using a hepatologist instead of a routine GI doctor. My doctor absolutely did not help in managing my symptoms.......he was quite dismissive and not aware of the multitude of side effects associated with this treatment. Thank God I had people who went through treatment who could help me through the process.
I am so anxious to feel better......I can't wait to exercise, play tennis, go for a walk......anything!
This year has been a year of growth, pain, disappointment, love, friendship and self awareness. I am sure all of the lessons will become clearer in the weeks and months to follow.
I have already started to wean off the anti-depressant and can't wait to be medication free....so much to look forward to.
