I'm glad you found the forum..it looks like it will be helping you as much as it did me!

You'll be fine tonight, I know it! - just look forward to relaxing on the couch tomorrow and using it as a good excuse to FINALLY get some rest that nobody can complain about!  ;-)  I sure am looking forward to sleeping late and saying "oh well you know I took my shot last night, let me sleep" hahahaha.

Stay positive...it's the BEST medicine there is!

TY NY Girl.
I have been throught hte intreferon last year but was only one shot a week. So this could be different. Hoping I dont get to sick because I am self employed but have a few people to help out i hope  lol.
Have a good day and weekend

Gary,

Just a word on your "copenhgen" pills. Studies suggest better results if taken with goose liver pate, raw herring, and
pastry, all the while reciting Hans Christian Andersen :)

All the best with treatment.

Ah shoot Jim that's why it's not working I thought it was Harry Anderson from Night Court!

;-)

[tonerman]

Do I do that while hopping on my right foot or left  lol

[NYgirl]

Don't forget to pat your stomach while hopping!

:)

See you will be just fine. As long as we all have each other to share with and laugh with and keep each others spirits up...I honestly find that to be SUCH excellent medicine I can't tell you.

Just knowing you are not ALONE in your battle and you have friends who understand........is worth more than anything.

Now time for you to start hopping again!  :)

(On a serious note though - start drinking water, as much as you can...it is the best help for the sx that I can find.  Have to put my cup of coffee down right now and do the same myself as it's shot day for me too!)

[beamishboy]

I have been procrastinating about turnibg on my spell chekk. So glad your here. Looks like I will be starting infergen, round two soon. Will be anxiously awaiting your responsenses.Hang On!

[cuteus]

first thing you must learn is that there is NOTHING WRONG WITH COFFEE!
In fact, there is a new article out on its benefits on the liver, but it is on PDF and I can't copy the URL..gggrrr!

anyway, here is to success this time (raise a latte).

[cuteus]

same here! well, actually, ribavirin did manage to pry it off my pleading fingers many times, but when I could drink it, I sweetened it with packets of the raw sugar! now I have to use splenda ;(.
here is the title to the abstract:
Coffee Drinking Decreases the Risk of Chronic Liver Disease in the United States Population
was presented on 11/12, presentation # 387.
I can't link to the site, but the comment by Willing down below has the link.
be well

I am amazed and pleased as to how many times I find myself agreeing with you! your contributions are priceless.

[tonerman]

Hello all and suzieq2
Will I ook my first shot last night made the mistake of taking it to early in the evening took it around 5:30 So I was up allnight with the chills never did get to sleep until 2-3 in the morning. So I want make that mistake again  LOL.

But all in all not to bad feeling this morning but I have to take one every night for 12 weeks now so will be interesting too see if it is the same tonight or better or worst. Hoping better LOL

One down, eighty-three to go.  Sorry it was a a rough one.  So you are going to do this one later, huh.  I do hope that helps.  These drugs are such a shock to the system. Don't forget to drink lots of water, and much luck to you
