yeah I notice now that you mention it. I thought my night sweats was associated to pre-menopausal symptoms. Hot or cold all night and night sweats.... Now I am comfortable at night with no sweats...weird.

The conventional wisdom among many is that it is the virus that causes night sweats  as a symptom of HCV..and once viral load is reduced ..night sweats stop....

Three days after I started tx. my night sweats stopped and did not come back until I stopped a failed treatment ..within  a week of viral load once again rising night sweats started again.

From what we have seen effects seem to be less and less after each shot. We are on our second shot as of this past Friday. First shot was flu like symptoms throughout the weekend till Monday evening. Second shot Fever came on Saturay evening but nowhere as bad and as well the nusea was not as bad. So far so good and she is doing well with the treament. As well she is eatiing all natural organic foods to help support her immune systems. Avacados for fat intake seem to work the best with no nusea.
