Hi

i am a newbie to this site, but having had a terrible/nightmare/painful/soul destroying time on the treatment in the past, (not something i want to repeat), but i am sick/tired of just existing, is the new drug that has been added to the treatment any better to experience even though the time to endure the side effects is less.
