Try, try again
Hi folks, been almost 2 yrs since my last post. Missed ya! Anyway, was diagnosed about 3 yrs ago & put on Pegasys & ribavirin. After 1 month, doc pulled me off of it, was not getting a very good response, may have been doing more harm than good. Now he wants to try it again, even tho my platelet count is way, way low. I think it may be a last resort. Good news is I quit drinking 19 months ago! :) That might be a factor in reattempting this treatment. Anyone else been here, done that? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanx!
i can't believe you were drinking during tx..i wonder what your withdrawals were like...now that you don't drink i'll bet you do much better in tx...this is the first time i ever heard of drinking while doing tx...good luck with everything...billy
