Thank you for the support, I have hunted online and haven't found anything on infergen but I will be getting the info sheet that comes with the meds so that should help. Nice to see the Jim is still on this site if you read this Jim just like to say hi and looking forward to hearing from you . You have a great sense of humor and alot of great information.
Elaine are you currently going through tx.? if so how are you doing ? and being that I haven't been here for awhile how long? Again thank you for your concern and best wishes, and they come right back to you to.. Thanks and Hugs Spzy q 2
Hi Spz,
I know very little about Infergen treatment protocols but I wish you all the best this time around. A few of our members have treated with Infergen and maybe one of them will stop by. I assume, like with SOC, that early and frequent viral load testing --- using sensitive assays -- is important to monitor your progress. Same with early intervention of Rescue drugs like Procrit if needed. Are you seeing a liver specialist (hepatologist)? They appear to have the most experience with re-treatment and especially with treatments other than SOC.
Knock the virus dead this time!
Be well,
-- Jim
I did 72 weeks of infergen. I cleared but relasped. I have done all the different interferons and did not think infergen was worse than the others. On the interferon my liver damage did regress from stage 4 to stage 3. I am now on maintance with infergen. Good Luck with the infergen.
