Sorry it's been a while... Hepatitis C (Hep C) Blog-Post

I visited my doctors last Friday to discuss being admitted to hospital to have a 'drain' put in for the the fluid that is building up in my abdmen again.

Last time I had this done they drained 23ltrs of fluid out of me and the relief was incredible!

I reckon that currently I'm carrying around 10ltrs of fluid which, whilst it's nothing like as bad as I've had; is still like carrying a sack of dead and decaying matter inside of me that is constantly pushing and swelling, trying to split open my guts to break free. It feels like the only thing that stops it is the 10inch wide velcro 'body-belt' that by now is getting increasingl difficult to strecch around me.

However, since going on the transplant list my doctors do not, unless absolutely necessary, perform any surgical procedure, for risk of infection.

So that leaves the option of adjusting my drugs and leads to the reason why I'm writing now and why I haven't wrote for a few days. Unfortunately I have been wiped out due to the change in medication, spending at least 36hrs in bed, dead to the world.

So sorry if it's been a while... normal service will be resumed as soon as possible!

Night-night all!
