| Dear Lloyd, I do indeed hope all is well. You and I have corresponded 
                    back and forth about the "treatment" option that 
                    my wife and I have pushed toward by the medical establishment. After being put on Paxcil and assured 
                    it was safe, my viral load went from 140k to 3.5 million.  
                    You had indicated that you felt I need to get off the 
                    paxcil which I started to do immediately and am already starting 
                    to feel better.  Tomorrow will be the first day that 
                    I totally stop taking it but I really feel as though the withdrawal 
                    is all but over.   I am all the way down to 10 mg. I 
                    am also down to 10mg. of the Valium a day.   Again 
                    I don't want to help in one area while exacerbating what is 
                    happening with my disease. Thanks for all your advice and I will keep you apprised as 
                    to our progress once we get started with the treatment.  
                    We are moving around the end of the month so that is when 
                    we will be kicking this thing off.  I am sure the Paxcil 
                    will be cleared by that point and if nothing else comes of 
                    this that is a step in the right direction! Gratefully,G. & A. G.
