Hi guys...Thanks for all the nice comments. It is good to know I am almost there. Berlynn sorry to say the answer is yes..it does get worse...guess it's all the meds built up in us. I woke up this a.m. crying w/ all the body aches and I am on lortab for pain. Guess I tried to go too long w/o any pain meds....I, like so many others am so sick of PILLS!!!!!! I have had a few good days though....one or two days I had sudden bursts of energy, did too much and paid for it the next few days later. The hardest thing I've done lately was plant 3 flats of pansies. My flowers have helped me alot in this bad time...along w/ my faith in God and never would have made it w/o all my hep c family on this forum. I love all you people soooooo much! Hang in there and read a post I did a while back...It's under "DON'T QUIT". Talk to you all soon. HUGS ~Cindee~

WAY TO GO CINDE!!!!!!!!! I'd like to know how the last10 weeks or so of your treatment went, especially sides. I keep hearing that it can get worse towrds the end. You made it!! You are an inspiration to us all.    berlynn


Layla, Thanks for all of the info that you have been sharing with me. I feel like many of you know way more than my dr. When I had problems with my eyes, and all of the pain in my neck, shoulders, and elbow ect.., the nurse in my drs office said that they were'nt side of pegasys. I'd think I was crazy if i didn't here that others have some of the same sxs. If I hadn't called the pegasyst nurse line, I would not have persued, these sides.
Oh, my grandaughte's name is Laina, I spelled it wrong before, must have been a combo of the bfog and having just typed your name. It is a pretty name though, my grandson is Levi, they are both a big part of what keeps me hangin in there. I really appreciate the communication from this site and all of you. I am almost 21/48, where are you in the scheme of things?
                             Keep in touch, berlynn

Sorry I don't know alot about test results....I would rather someone on here...like Galen help you...she is very knowledgeable. You really sound like you are in a wonderful frame of mind. I did my 48/48 last nite and I never thought I'm make it. I had some bad sides.......but remember no two people have all of the same sides. I wish you well and my prayers are w/ us all. ~Cindee~
