Doctor visit today
Doctor visit today with blood test after. Won't have results for a couple of days, mb not until Monday. I "ratted out" DH with not always eating 20 grams of fat with the Incivek. Doc was not happy - said the fat is absolutely necessary for the medicine to work. So, loaded up on bags of chips, summer sausage on the way home. DH doesn't have much of an appetite, so eating the fat grams is hard.

Incivek
I nagged DH yesterday about eating the 20 grams of fat with each dose of the Incivek. He's sick and doesn't feel like eating the cheese or the peanut butter or the almonds. I wonder what will happen if he doesn't eat precisely the recommended amount of fat. I told him I was concerned that he wasn't going to get the full effect of the medicine and that he was going through all this hell for naught if he didn't.
