Haven't heard from my neuro yet though I did email him yesterday and I got the results in the mail of the last LFT... they fax copies to him so I guess whenever he reviews his faxes, he will see it.

for the record, starting from 23 March blood tests:
SGOT 74, SGPT 92
23 June
SGOT 125, SGPT 158
12 July (last beta shot 28 June)
SGOT 61, SGPT 69

only thing I've done beside stopping the beta (after being on it for 10 1/2 years) is I'm taking milk thistle 250mg bid...

I realize the weight I've put on is a problem too, that I have a "fatty liver" from the weight, but these results tell me the beta is a problem too; I will wait and see what my neuro says and I will go back on it when my liver has had a chance to heal.

interestingly, I have felt really good off the beta...more energy, better attitude, better mental clarity...

thanks for your support and prayers~ I appreciate it.

It was like night and day for me when I stopped the Beta. Don't know what's in that stuff but it was definitely not helping me. My Neuro tries the guilt trip to get me to start it again. I think he got a little perturbed at me last time I went in (last week). He made the comment "well, it's your body you can do what you want with it". And to that I said "Yes it is. I totally agree with you and that is what I intend to do". And that ended my checkup!
