POSITIVE VISUALS

WEEK 49 begins

     "Float Like a Butterfly  Stinging Hep C"



"I'm so mean I make Medicine Sick"
" I've Given Hep C so many Jabs, it thinks it's surrounded. It's had that many lefts it's dying for a right !"  A Fistful of Rebetol. These are my special weapons & tactics. Attack for defence.

As Sun Tzu says," To beat the enemy 1st you must understand it ."

This is My Rumble in The Jungle & I've have come prepared, I understand how the battle will unfold & have done all I can to block all attacks & most importantly have kept my morale high. You'll find no stress at this address, the virus strongest allie, with the right preperation stress can be put down before it exists. This is your fight & if you break the rules & fail there's only youself to blame.
Come the end of treatment, if you can look yourself in the mirror & say " well I've done all I can & wouldn't change a step," then you'll stand the best chance of comming to terms with whatever the outcome. last time I had quite a few, if only's.

This time my eyes are opend by experience...

JAB 48

THE HITMAN "HEARNS"




Thomas Hearns was famous for his Jab, here in action against a very tough Mexican, Roberto Duran.

When applying your weekly Jab, May I suggest you alternate the site each time, such as each thigh each buttock each side of the belly even the tops of the arms in the Bingo wing area. That way each area can have a 4 week rest, till next used. Remember,there must be plenty of fat at the spot. Another tip is tense your muscles in the Jab site & anything still between your pinched fingers is your spot, it just makes separating fat from lean easier.
Always ask your Dr if unsure, but I'm advising from experience, trust me it works & keeps skin irritation to a minimum.
Also, I found the fattier the spot the less harsh the effects were. Stands to reason it will seep into the bloodstream slower the more fat it has to get through. Remember sub-cutaneous means under the skin, as aposed to intro-muscular, meaning into the muscle. Don't go into muscle only fat. I always angle my jab 45-55 degrees, going in straight cold pierce the gut, in thinner people. I've had 73 jab's in all & as yet no problems.

Good Luck

WEEK 48

TERMINATION IS IMMINENT

JAB 47
Cooper shows Clay the Canvas.

This is how I like to imagine the effect each Jab deals the hep c virus. I could have had more fun with this aspect, but hey I only had 5 left when I started my blog. Still they all count. Nobody is Invincible !
  
       JAB 46
                                                       
RIBORAGING BULL

Riborage is a term that's been coined due to the probable side effect of the Rebetol (ribavirin). There is a tendency to become quick to temper, or being very weepy, it may emerge I the form of a tendency to ramble on about a subject, over & over in a manic fashion. Just be aware of this & in my experience,once your aware, you can stop yourself by taking a moment to say to yourself " this is a normal reaction to the Rebetol, best go & relax, timeout !
WEEK 46
