Vic,

Sounds like your doctor is doing the right thing being aggressive to try and get your symptoms under control. Big difference in dosage from 15 to 60mg. Don't know anything about Hep c treatment so I won't comment. The supplements he advised make sense....I take the same supplements in addition to 1mg of folic acid, multi vitamins, and 60meg of potassium.

I had auto immune induced hepatitis but that is different from hep c. As soon as IVIG controlled things my liver returned to normal in time.

Our 4th was cool and rainy so my wife and I worked on home projects all day and then relaxed. Our 2 sons who live locally were either out of town or working (cop) so we were alone. Beautiful today and will play golf this afternoon.

Hope the new regimen works for you. Hang in there but it sounds like you might have a good doc.
