Welcome To Health & Wellness Central
I'm not so much a health fanatic as I am someone who appreciates feeling healthy, and enjoying a quality of life not having ones health would make impossible. It wasn't too long ago I was told the reason I was constantly feeling rundown and exhausted wasn't simply a case of passing 50. I was informed that the cause of my persistent symptoms was due to a case of undiagnosed Hepatitis C, courtesy of a blood transfusion I received during my one and only operation. Ironically, the operation was to deal with a sports injury, a painful, but not life threatening groin pull sustained while playing racket ball. Why do I refer to the cause of the operation as ironic? Because it was the result of my constant effort to stay fit that I was injured in the first place, and the subsequent operation resulted in my being infected with a chronic disease I was unlikely to have contracted any other way. |

The treatment for Hepatitis C is brutal, requiring Peginterferon, a longer-acting form of interferon, the infamous Chemo drug, combined with Ribavirin, another nasty drug with all sorts of potential side effects. I was fortunate in that my treatment was a complete success. The experience of being bombarded with chemicals for someone who normally wouldn't take an aspirin unless a migraine headache was sever enough to bring him to tears was something I'd never want to go through again though. To this end, I'm now more committed to living a healthy lifestyle and to have no need of the services provided by medical facilities than I was previously. Obviously trauma injuries are unavoidable, especially for someone who's active in recreational pursuits that horrify insurance adjusters. However, I have no intention of allowing myself to be hospitalized or placed into the care of medical practitioners if it is at all possible to avoid it. Thus I do a lot of research into health and wellness, healthy eating habits, fitness, stress reduction, blood pressure management, and alternative medicines and treatments. I will share some of the more interesting findings here, so please bookmark this page and return often for the latest news. |
