chills and sweats on SOC???

I am going to do shot # 4 tomorrow night and for the last week almost every night I start around 8-9pm with chills and then go to bed and wake up soaking, yes I am talking like I took a shower with my cloths on! Saw my dr. yesterday and he just said take tylenol when I feel it coming on and not to worry that means its working. So far this is it just chills and sweats. Anyone else on SOC having this happen?

Hi !   I am on ending week 7 on Triple Tx w/INC.    And I can honestly say that the 1st shot I did, four hours later, I had the worst chills and fever ever in my life.   But that was it !    Getting ready to start week 8, and still no fever's or really bad chills like the very first shot I did.    Just the normal SX  ie: fatigue, headache, nausea, firreeah, occasional vomiting, itching and riba rage :)    But there you go again,  these SX  hit everyone differenly.   A very close friend of mine and her daughter who was 17 went through SOC about 4 years ago with peg & riba.    They were both GT 2, and both of them had horrible chills and fever throughout the whole tx process.   But both of them cleared the virus as well.   Hopefully this is a good sign for you as I am sure it will be with all God's Blessings !      Hang in there Sugar !  It will be over with soon !
