Rocket III R

I use to have an 800 Intruder. I ended up giving it up due to a lot of problems which developed over the years. A few years later when my wife was looking at Cam Am. She found one she liked and I ended up getting my Triumph Rocket 3 R. I always loved riding my Intruder. I do love riding my Triumph. Not easy to get parts for but my wife rides with Triumph mechanic.
I have been out of work due to non-alcholic liver cirrhosis and a damaged shoulder. Hoping for a live donor of half a liver. I keep up on trying to rehab my shoulder.
Do hope to recover and be able to ride long distance again. Miss riding with Intruder alert members.
Be safe and healthy, all of you.

I finished as much rehab as I can. Shoulder hurts but have a bit of my mobility back. Liver is still a problem for me
I wear out after a couple hours riding or dtiving. I can ride again so happy about that. Wife loves riding with me.
I do at times miss whem I could have a beer, soda, steak, salt. So things change. Now i ride out and carry meds with me, get tea or coffee and adhear to a stricter diet. I carry water all the time.
I hope to be able to ride again with members of Intruder alert again.

Have you looked into taking Milk Thistle in heavy doses. In your case I would go for ~500mg in the morning then again at night.

Milk thistle contains compounds collectively known as silymarin, a group of flavonoids which have been shown to protect liver cells from toxic substances. Like NAC, milk thistle is a strong antioxidant that supports healthy liver function by defending against oxidative stress. Keep in mind, however, that not all milk thistle has the same level of silymarin content. Look for milk thistle standardized to at least 70% silymarin.
