Tomorrow Nights Injection

Ughh how come I get so panicky every week. This week its almost as bad as the first time. Maybe its because there was such a difference in the first and second SX it leaves me wondering what is next.

Oh and as far as Riba Rage... has ANYONE ever wanted to jerk the turn signal off their car, tie to to the D**n bumper and drag down a dirt road at 500 MPH?????

Remember that the Interferon is your friend and is helping you fight the virus.  Every Friday I get excited and happy for it to be over - more Interferon helping me fight the virus and one more shot down! Of course, I am nuts from the Riba as well.....

The first few injections are nerve wracking, but this will pass.  You will get use to it and before you know it you will be a pro, and won't get nervous.

LOL on the turn signal!  I say the Riba causes shortness of fuse along with shortness of breath.  I tend to get snippy pretty easily these days.  Keep us posted on #3. They tend to get easier for most of us.

amen.  don't be nervous, be mentally prepared for how long you have to go and be determined.  stick to your purpose of why you're treating.  i'm starting to get all sorts of sx near the end of tx and i have to drive at least 45min a day to and from school.  talk about driving here, people make right turns from the center lane and NEVER signal.  sometimes i just want to honk my way home.
