It's amasing how we all seem to feel much better around the 3rd week post Tx. It will get better as time goes on; not day by day but it does continue to get better. I am 4 months out and I still see slight improvements. I am waitng for my dry mouth to go away even though it is much better than it was 2 months ago. My taste has almost fully returned but the dry mouth tends to hide that improvement. I still drink VHC every day to supplement my eating.
