Hello 
                      Lloyd!
                    Just 
                      wanted to take a moment and give you the good news!
                      How does a 60% decrease in my viral load after 3 
                      months
                      taking herbs and frozen Thymus sound?!
                    I 
                      am very happy with the numbers but most of all I am feeling 
                      so good!  I have much more energy and the liver pain 
                      that I had since the biopsy are gone too!  I have been 
                      meaning to get back with you sooner but I felt so good that 
                      I have been out doing things instead of staying home because 
                      I felt tired and ill!  I am very interested to see 
                      what the next set of tests say at the end of this year after 
                      3 more months of good alternative medicine!
                    Here 
                      are my blood test numbers for the last two rounds.
                      I will send you copies of the lab reports for your files.

                    I 
                      was the person who emailed you 'thanks 
                      for the Reishi' (on the message board) 
                      a few months back when I started on the Thymus. I feel very 
                      blessed to be getting better on a treatment that makes me 
                      feel better while I am taking it not worse! I am also glad 
                      I waited and did some research before I jumped into anything.
                    My 
                      gastro Dr. really pushed the Rebtrol since I am genotype 
                      3a and under 35 and female so I was supposed to have the 
                      best of all chances to clear the virus - 50% chance.  But 
                      it still sounded like a lot of suffering for not a big chance 
                      of getting better. But I did decide to get the liver biopsy 
                      to find out what stage of the disease I was at.  I 
                      was relieved to find out that I had no fibrosis or cirrhosis- 
                      but I paid for it with a very painful liver for many months 
                      afterwards. I regret that part and it made me very cautious 
                      of how to proceed with treatment for Hep C.
                    I 
                      was already interested and had used some alternative treatments 
                      and nutritional therapies with much success in the past 
                      so I felt your program was the way to go!
                      And now I think it definitely was the right choice! I always 
                      keep up on the news on the message board, I find it to be 
                      very helpful. Feel free to put this up on the message board 
                      as encouragement to others!
                    Thank 
                      you for your help and providing these products to all of 
                      us with Hep C!
                      Keep up the wonderful work!
