Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 939 | Bill worked quite easily thru week 3. He started feeling rough during week 4 but still labored on. Week 5 he was pretty weak and sick and work came to a halt. He landed in the hospital (fever) the beginning of week 6..missed three treatments but finished only three days late.
By the third week after treatment, he was back at work full time.
