HOW IS EVERYONE DOING? ARE YOU HEALTHY?

I just want to check on you all.  This forum feels lonely.  I think I'm addicted to it, because I find myself continually going back and reading the old posts, because there's nothing new to see!  Is anyone else starting treatment soon?  Is anyone else having weird sides?  I had the essence of two side effects from the Ribavirin yesterday: Achiness in my joints, which I'm predisposed to anyway.  However, I have had very little arthralgia (joint pain) in weeks, and after taking the Riba yesterday morning, by last night I was having a huge, painful, bout of arthritis all the way into this afternoon.  Still hasn't disappeared.  The other side effect......well......weird, I can't remember.  Hmmm, that's funny.  It was just there at the tip of my brain.  Well, when I think of it, I'll let you know.  I got a slight taste of what's to come.  It was like an experiment yesterday.  I'll think of it that way.  Hope everyone is okay today!    Kathy (activist)
