Hey Bill, Things have really started moving since you were dx'd, I can see your treatments have moved right along with the research and discoveries, your an inspiration to us newbies. For the new ones (I was dx'd 5/04) it shows that this disease does not need to be and really is no longer a death sentence. Thank goodness for trials and the brave warriors who volunteer for them. There are so many options now I hope you'll find one that suits you. Take Care Brenda dx 5/04 pcru 5/05
