feeling great!

Not really a question, more of a comment. Started my tx yesterday, shot last night and I feel great, no sides! And I was so worried. Have others experienced this? Could it be a delayed reaction? Its been 15 hrs since shot.

If the itching persists, you might ask the doctor for Atarax; see if that helps, Missy.

I started mine yesterday, took the shot @ 1030, legs started getting achey about 5, then by 7 I felt like I had the worst flu of my life, by 11 I had a fever of 104.6 and a terrible headache.. Broke my fever early in the morning.. I've had a lot of leg weakness today but other than that I'm feeling pretty decent!!

Thats great!

I never had any of those flu sides either (until about week 30 I got them around them a few times).  Hopefully you will do as well with the rest of the sides and never have to worry about it - not everyone has it that bad (but everyone sure worries that they will!)
