Instead of painting I have been writing lately. At least I am experiencing a reflective and creative definition of my time. I bought a cheap journal at a Dollar Store. I am writing anecdotes and poetry and writing down a document of my expenses.

My sister should be home from Ireland and Malta.

virus news

Although I did not see Sally we talked on the phone and she said that my virus is still showing undetectable-very good news. I have to make sure that I meet my appointment with the dermatologist to find out what is happening with my cryoglobulins and vasculitis and arthritis ???!!!So although my liver is at a serious stage of damage the virus at least will not be destroying it bit by bit.
I thought very clearly in my mind before Sally called me that the virus was no longer about because my feet are no longer swelling.

I see the nurse Sally on Monday at 8:00 A.M.

not nice ditto double double

I had my appointment with the dermatologist and I was told that I had tested positive for cryoglobulins and for rhuematoid arthritis-that last one came out of nowhere's land.He called my hepatologist and he and the nurse and Dr. Kaita decided to retest me for the hep c virus and not wait until September.a skin biopsy was taken, about seven tubes of blood and a urine test-and now I am pretty sure the virus has arisen.Two years of treatment -what the heck-slowed down the progress of the liver disease but we will know more in a few weeks.
the whole thing is pretty scary.
One thing I know-if I ever had any doubts about receiving disability cheques those doubts have been eradicated.

NOT NICE

This is my leg-the red spots at first are qite bumpy almost like large pimples, then they appear to flatten and become itchy and later turn to bruises and fade.
