| Lloyd; love the info on your web site. its been 
                    two years since i finished treatment. i had the peg-intron, 
                    ribavirin cocktail. i am showing no signs of the disease return 
                    (yeah).  my last appointment with my doctor, i told 
                    her i felt about as bad as i did on treatment. i have never 
                    suffered from any emotional or psychological problems pre-treatment. 
                    i have zero energy, depression, feel very weak, have no motivation, 
                    irritable, in general no fun to be around. i lost my job of 
                    22 years, three months ago because of declining performance 
                    and a personality that no one wants to be around.  i have long term disability insurance and 
                    am wondering if there is anyone who can help me go through 
                    the steps to prove the disability. my doctor finally acknowledged 
                    that there appears to be about 20% of patients who suffer 
                    long term effects but that there is no conclusive proof.is she just protecting herself or being 
                  straight. well, time for my morning nap. any help or leads would 
                  be greatly appreciated. S.     |
