Well I did IT...So far So Good

[hvnbnd4]

Well I got brave and did it. Yesterday at 4pm I took my first shot. 180 of pegsys alpha 2-a..then at 8pm last night I took 200mg of riba and at 9pm I took the other 200mg.  I used the zofran before the shot and a promethezine before the pills.  So far I have had no reactions at all. A little redness at the site.  I did take a tylnol pm too. I woke today and went to the "Y" worked out, did the tread mill, and swam a few laps.  I took both my morning pills 400mg together at 8am.  So, I am taking 800 mg per day.  Is this still too small a dose for my weight? I am 270 female, and my v load is 280K, with no elevations in my liver panels at all. and only slight damage without any scarring.  Maybe doc feels I dont need a higher dose.  I have only had Hep for 11 years.  He is on vacation until the 6th. So, I have to wait anyway.  Atleast I feel good. I could go up to another 200mg maybe.  I will wait and ask him tho. Thanks for the info.. Geri floating from the water....

pegasys must be refrigerated. pegintron powder, according to their insert does not need refrigeration, after reconstituted I believe it needs it.
best thing to do is call the drug company.
