Thanks everyone!
I'm not having much side effects yet. It's been about 8 hours - just went for some laps around the block on the bike. The only thing I'm feeling as of now is some mild pressure in my head (nothing bad at all). I'm really worried about that clear liquid (looked like the pegasys) that slightly leaked out of the injection area.. blood followed. Hopefully I got enough of the meds in me.
good luck....i started last week....may you test und
Well, as if we don’t already have enough meds to keep up with, my Dr. has recommended 800 I.U of vitamin E gel caps every day to help with dry skin side effects. I don’t start tx till April 8th though.
Best of luck to ya.
just read it again - you are on pegasys! keep at it, get well!
Which Peg are you on? I found with Pegasys (not with Riba though), the intial hit was OK. With Pegetron, for me, about 4 hours after the shot, I suddenly had the highest fever I had ever had in my life (well over 100 / 40c).
Good luck! hope it all goes well for you, don't worry too much about the viral load I think. The 4 week PCR will be the big thing, you should have a pretty good idea with those results if this is going to work well.
