* I am now in my 3rd month of a 12 month liver
treatment
involving weekly injections & daily meds. Pray that I
will not get Severe Anemia as I did last year & that
there will be no bad side-effects.Side-effects have
unfortunately kept me from church a few times & a
fainting spell on my birthday+++. Please Pray too that
my hiv & hepatitis C viral loads will drop to
"completely
undetectable".I need God's strength & mercy to get me
through the next 9 months. AMEN, Ricardo
+++Memorial Weekend 1993, I was in the hospital, was a
fairly new hiv patient & they gave me 6 mos. to live.
Since then I got saved, was working until recent
disabilty...& looking for another PRAISE REPORT out of
this current post-Memorial week situation ! Praise
God!

Last week on a blood work a level was in the CANCER RANGE..have to redo this Wed.; and schedule ct-scan & liver biopsy w/ in a month..praying that this was a false reading..NEED PRAYER &
After coming off of the 1 yr. of medications unfortunately my Hep C viral level went up to 4 million---this was an unexpected set back.
It appears that the hep c virus hid in some FATTY LIVER, and that made it undetectable. Due to the medications I also may have developed PRE-DIABETES.
My HIV remains undetectable, thank God, but I could use a rise in t-cells. Hence, please lift up in prayers for a Fatty Liver to return to normal; Hepatitis C virus level to go down; NO diabetes to progress; and T-Cells needed to boost my immune system to rise. And NO CANCER!
A COMPLETE MEDICAL OVER-HAUL ! & Help in getting both pension plans to be 100 % correct; for past disabilty payments to be approved; & a NYC Bond returned.

Last Thu. I had the MRI @ St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital on my liver and pancreas area-to recap I had two recent blood tests known as AFPs that showed me in a cancer range.
Friday, I was in Manhattan & met w/ a nurse practitioner as my dr. is on vacation & we went over the results---absolutely no signs of cancer w/ the only thing noticeable was a very small cyst. The cyst is waterly looking meaning non-cancerous---that's the good news..NO CANCER!
The bad news is for the first time in my life is these official findings from my copy of the report it says "The liver has a fine modular contour suggestive of cirrhosis".
There's alot more on my copy but concludes w/
"IMPRESSION:"
2.) Hepatic cirrhosis with splenomegaly.
Please note that these words used are "suggestive" and "IMPRESSION"...to me, a layman & a believer that my God is still in the healing business..means the results & there was an ultrasound of 5/25/07 that didn't set off any bells and an MRI of 10/31/2003 at Roosevelt that also didn't set off any alarms---are not of course 100% conclusive.
If I was in court and said judge I'd like to "suggest" sir,or your honor I get the "impression", he'd probably say EVIDENCE, give me concrete evidence.
So at this point we still have an unscheduled liver biopsy that needs to be done & my next appt. w/ my liver specialist Dr. Gabriel & my PCP is on Dec. 5th; a biopsy may be done sooner but time has to be scheduled.
So like w/ the cancer scare please pray that cirrhosis will not be my downfall, as I proclaim that "I shall not die but live,and will proclaim what the Lord has done" (Psalm 118:17)...but cirroshis is serious--- & most of us know someone w/ that disease..in many ways it can cut life shorter than cancer..but that's not for me, amen:
Some facts though: Cirrhosis and chronic liver disease were the 10th leading cause of death for men and the 12th for women in the United States in 2001, killing about 27,000 people each year.[12] Also, the cost of cirrhosis in terms of human suffering, hospital costs, and lost productivity is high.
Established cirrhosis has a 10-year mortality of 34-66%, largely dependent on the cause of the cirrhosis; alcoholic cirrhosis has a worse prognosis than primary biliary cirrhosis and cirrhosis due to hepatitis. The risk of death due to all causes is increased twelvefold; if one excludes the direct consequences of the liver disease, there is still a fivefold increased risk of death in all disease categories.[13]
I AM AWAITING A DATE FOR A LIVER BIOPSY..PRAY W/ ME FOR NO SERIOUS CIRROSHIS. _________________ ~~Jesus IS The Great Physician!~~
What precautions can we take for the onset of Diabetes? How to tackle the early stages of Diabetes? My mother (65 years old) has been diagnosed with blood sugar which is slightly above the normal.
