The meds itself

I suppose your all dying to know what im exactly on So every friday i go home at around... 12:30 to do my injections, then i head to the doctor at 1 for my blood tests. My injections are called "Peginterferon alfa 2-a" I am on pills that i take twice a day, BUT i take 5 pills a day. so three in the morning, and two at night Those are called Ribavirin/Ribasphere/chemopills" SO. that is what i am exactly on. The peginterferon shortly known as "Pegasys" Are pre-filled syringes, all i have to do is attatch the needle. its really easy i think even my 5 year old cousin could do it Also do hospital infusions 1x a week. The needle so superrr sharp, i barley have to jab myself for it to slide nicely into my stomach. whats that say? haha. jk Peginterferon are Interferons which are natural proteins your body produces to fight off infections, and since im low on them-thats why i take the shots- to boost my immune system to fight the disease. Anyways- I just had our neighbors xmas party- its about 11:30 pm. And im packing for my grandmas. Which i leave right after my doctors tomarrow. I thought i would put in a couple of my favorite quotes from people ive heard "OMG are you gonna die!??!" -Yes , eventually, but dont we all? - I just might live a little bit shorter life then the rest of you healthy folks, i plan on making it till atleast like 40. PLANNING.- that is if i go threw this treatment successfully- which i have a 40% chance of clearing it and moving on with my life. Which isnt all that great- but i think a positive attitude about it helps. "Dont even worry about it, youll be fine"- No, I clearly worried about it, and I clearly was not fine. And i am still not fine. I will 1) never be able to drink alcohol. 2) I have to make sure i dont pass this on to future generations (yay me.. right?) "Oh sad, i know how you feel"- No, again, you clearly have no idea how i feel. No body does, unless they infact also have gone threw the brutal chemo, WHICH i dont know anybody personally. "Wig time yet?"- mr. schluter- hahahahaha that just made me laugh-but i dont intend on loosing all of my hair, i have shedded alot, and my hair has definetly taken a turn for the bad, but its only for a year, and after all this it will grow back nice long and even thicker :) Anyways- what ive learned so far, is that not to take things for granted, especially life, even though im not dying tomarrow, My view point has definetly changed, and i actually want to do something with my life. I want to go to college- i always have, but i really want to go into nursing, and my grades are straight A'S this year, i have a 4.0 and plan on keeping it. I am more social, so honestly, as much as this sucks, im sorta happy it happend, it has taught me so much about myself, and life in general. Alright- sorry for another long post. Ill update probably ............the day after christmas.
