Odyssey Posted May 26, 2021 Author Share Posted May 26, 2021 I’m off to Celtic deeps 🙂 Going to be a bit lumpy maybe but hopefully fishable, day on land (Saturday) back out there on Sunday and then reefing Monday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPSguru Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) Unfortunately I am way too ill to go out at the moment with another flare up of Colitis. However, I have had a load of test this week to put me on a Biologic drug which I would need to inject every 2 weeks. The tests were loads of blood tests for Hepatitis, chicken pox, & Measles antibodies, Also more blood taken to test whether I have ever had TB and that I am a not a TB carrier, and other tests, including xrays, to ensure that I am not a Hepatitis carrier. I should know all the results next week. The initial dose is interesting, it is injected in the stomach and the initial dose is 4 syringes injected simultaneously ! Unfortunately with this stuff, it is an immunosuppressant, so going forward I will have almost zero immunity, which might mean some lifestyle changes, and certainly carries a huge element of risk, but right now I am willing to take the risk.

Andy135 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Well, it looks like I'll be out this weekend after all! I had two viewings of Apache lined up for the weekend but both of them turned out to be time-wasters. I'm really interested in your boat mate, we're serious buyers mate... blah, blah, blah. The silver lining is that I now have a more flexible weekend and have been invited to crew on Tarlach Too with @Saintly Fish. 🥳🥳 Dicky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the screening was successful and I start the drug on Thursday. The screen threw up an odd one, I have had glandular fever within the last 10 years 🤭, also I have never had covid 👍 and although I look like a badger, I am not a TB carrier 🤣 suzook12, Maverick, Andy135 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
