Done with Incivek since Monday and 12 week labs finally show UND. So that's good. Labs also revealed low TSH, an indicator of possible hypothyroidism, so we're going to keep an eye on that.
Maybe that's the reason why I feel poorly this week and especially today. Tired and cranky, but at work. Party on!

that is great news.  on all of my rounds of treatment, my tsh went low.  but the first two rounds it came back.  not so much the third.  good luck with that.
