I Guess I'm Not Crazy.....

Well, turns out after consulting with my General Practitioner, the GI Doc is not going to insist I see a Psychiatrist :-) Rather, he agreed with my GP Doctor's assesment that any potential depression side effects from combo therapy could be managed by her. Thus, they are recommending a Rx of the antidepressant drug Lexapro to be begun two weeks prior to the commencement of combo therapy. I have taken it for several days now and don't really like the way it makes me feel, my biggest complaint being that, for me , it seems to cause insomnia.

My liver biopsy was performed quite well yesterday, virtually painless, unlike my last one four years ago which was a bit painful. Very pleased with that, now just waiting for the report from the pathologist in hopes that any liver damage caused by the virus continues to be minimal.
