Chat Room

Considering the pegalated interferon/ribiviron treatment.  I find this site appropriate for my interests and helpful.  Congratulations to the many people who are finding the "cure" for our disease!  I want to get into the chat -- recall seeing hours of operation one time, but have had difficulty finding them again.  Will someone please clue me in on the protocol?  I had been previously registered as 'bunny'.

I'm not sure about the lesions, you should contact your doctor and make sure they are aware of all side effects

Common side effects of COPEGUS taken with PEGASYS include:
• flu-like symptoms-feeling tired, headache, shaking along with high temperature (fever), and muscle or joint aches
• mood changes, feeling irritable, anxiety, and difficulty sleeping
• loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
• hair loss
• itching
Tell your healthcare provider about any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.
These are not all the possible side effects of COPEGUS treatment. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects.

In the future use the orange post a question button at the top of the page and it will start a new thread and you will get more responses to your question
