My journey through life with HIV and HEP-C .

Still fighting the good fight .

Wow as I change the calendar this month. I am immediately reminded , I am going on 20 years of surviving  HIV, & Hepc . Both are undetectable . I am semi healthy , by that I mean I have maintained my weight  of 150 Lbs for 6 months now .   My Dr. Had switched me to complera and the weight just flew off my body . I could not or did not want to eat . The side effects of this drug ,plus my antidepressant did a number on my stomach . I finally remembered a friend from the 80's who was losing weight and having stomach issues used ENSURE to help put on weight and add some more nutrients as well. The Dr also switched me to Odefsey, and a different antidepressant Effexor.
I am sure you long time survivors have been switched a few times by now .The side effects are the worst but once you get used to them , you will get switched again .

The only other issue I have is dizziness and fainting .If any of you are having this problem, we need to talk about it. I am sure I am not the only one out here . Hoping you are all well , and Blessed

Springtime

Well here we go finally spring . Filled with Hope , allergies , bad storms .. I prefer to stay on the hope part . I don't know if its possible to be happy when other people suffer from these horrible storms . Bless them for mother nature can be quite explosive . I have been feeling alive again ,as I do every spring ...HOPE . The Dr's say my numbers are great and I am "undetectable " a clearer answer I shall soon find out . I don't doubt what they say as they have the "numbers" and that is what it says .

I have a question for all my friends who went through the horrors of the liver treatment . How is your head these days ? Peace and love .....Sean

I know you can have the bad days where you just can't better any thought going through your brain.Is this just my poor brain fried from the years of happy boy living and the decays of HIV/AIDS sure enough ,But I was able to help my friends when they needed it , To many people to many friends . yes it affects you but so does missing out on the life they left behind . I have to give up to the guilt and fear of being here to actually enjoy it . As My good friend told me I am dead before I am alive .. What am I left to do , for there is a reason an important one .I have more  than had my 
9 lives and more chances! most,  I have reveled in , some I got burned as we all too well have done in our lives . And some of course changed who I am . But I do know who I am and continue to learn who I am until I die as we all do .Many positive thoughts to you all and thanks for checking in!
