    About Me

    My husband was just diagnosed with Hep C. He just got his liver biopsy results and we are beginning the process of working through the maze of treament options.

    Interests

    My husband and I are very devoted to our spiritual path. I work as a silversmith creating devotional jewelry. My husband is a fine carpenter. We are both musicians and while we play mostly blues, right now we're working on a devotional CD. We have two kids in their early 20's.

    • Close Hepatitis C

      My husband was recently diagnosed with Hep C. He just got his liver biposy back and is going to start tx very soon.

    • Close Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

      was diagnosed with IBS 11 years ago. I was told that there was really no "cure" and that it was so bad that it may develop into colitis. I have been free from IBS for 10 years 8 months.

      Treatments

      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      told by the nutritionist: no dairy - dairy causes irritation in the intestinal tract causing the intestines to spasm - hence: irritable bowel. Hart to do but it works.
