I had first Pegasys shot on Saturday. Felt like I had the worst flu of my life.
Doctor told me to take Paracetamal if I couldn't stand it..I took just one in the end..
Thank you all for your support.
Latest results on March 2012 ..are as follows:
Fibroscan -- 4.2 kpa
HBV DNA -- 450,897 copies/ml
HBsAg (Quantitative) -- 3054.03 IU/ml (cut off= 0.05 IU/ml)
Hbeag - Negative
anti-Hbe - Positive
SGOT/AST-----85 u/l---- high
SGPT/ALT-----63 u/l-----high
I'll keep you updated.
do you have baseline hbeag and hbsag quantity?so we get to know the chances of clearance
you are brave,I wish you good luck with treatment.I am scared to even start an antiviral.I just had a second fibroscan and is 3.7 kpa,I hope it is what it says.Please keep us dated.
intf is the heavy one but it worths if hbsag goes down because a lifetime of antivirals whose sides longterm are unknown is not a good choice
I'll start 2g of Ntz first as you suggest.
I am scared of the tx to be honest.
But I think it's time to do it now before it's too late.
