Interferon-Ribavirin support groups
I am a single parent of a beautiful talented daughter, and I was recently diagnosed with HCV positive(chronic). I have the kind of HCV positive(chronic) that does not respond so wellto interferon treatments.
I have choosen to try this Interferon-Ribavirin therapy regardless with hopes of getting better. I start this therapy soon after the new year.I live in Bend,Oregon and feel I need to attend a support group either for Interferon-Ribavirin therapy users or HCV positive(chronic) patients.
Do you know if there are support groups in my area???? I have very limited resources and no PC of my own, I am using a friends today to contact you. Any advice of help you could offer would be sincerely appreciated!!!
Thank you for your time and consideration,

I'm now doing okay with the anxiety and am detoxing off them. Do u think theres any chance he'll give me something to help the pain? It's so unbearable some days.
I have written before I am a mom of two young girls. When I first started treatment they had to put me on xanax cause the stress was to much trying to keep up with normal family activities. The whole time my joints have been getting more and more swollen, he has me on celebrex but the pain is so bad! Has anyone ever gotten their doctor for pain meds to help manage the pain. I asked one day and he said try motrin I'm on tramadol for a back injury but nothings helping! I really can't take this pain anymore I tried hot showers, hot pads, bath. I don't even want to move my body hurts so bad! Whta should I do?
Thats so awesome Congads and good luck!!! I myself can't wait to say that and then it's on too a healthier no pill to take me! LOL!
