awww... sweetie, I'm so sorry :(  I too am having horrible bone and joint pain, especially after my pegasys shots.  I take hot baths and it helps some.  I am taking pain medication too though definitely.  Before I had pain medication I took ibuprofen but it didn't really do much.  Procrit will cause achey flu-like symptoms the first few times as well, but they tend to go away after the first few times.  Unfortunately, the interferon causes RA symptoms or actual RA in some people and that doesn't necessarily go away during treatment, or sometimes after treatment.  

Please let us know how it goes with your doc and if you have any probs, just find a pain management clinic in your area.  They will be able to help you.
