The big day!
Tomarrow is the big day I start my tx. Now I know to expect side effects after my shot tomarrow night, but am I correct to not expect any sides after taking my pills? I take 3 in the am and 3 in the pm. Thanks for your help.
I don't think that you will feel any significant side effects from the pills on the first day. It seems that it takes a little while before the sides from riba kick in. Everyone reacts differently, so your experience may vary, but I think most people don't feel the ribavirin on the first day (maybe some gastro issues). For me, the ribavirin is far more tolerable than the inteferon, but other people have it the opposite way.
Good luck with your treatment. The first shot, with all the anxiety, is always rough. Hopefully, you will reach SVR with minimal sides.
