What's new is that I'll be switching again to one of the pills (I'm mis-spelling it on purpose to avoid the bots) called "Tech Federra" sometime next month after I use up all of my needles.
I'm already planning a steak dinner for the night of my last needle  then I take a two week "vacation" and clean out before I start the pills. 
Once that starts, I can finally go on a diet and drop 10-15 lbs since I won't need the "shot acreage" any more (Interferon and muscle tissue is NOT a happy combination).
So, it isn't the best news but I'm still smiling. I figure another 4-5 years of a pill a day is better than having nothing change.

Yes I've reached the age when I wonder - when people ask how I am - whether to say "How long have you got?" My body seems to be becoming an atlas of afflictions
