Post back on treatment

well, i was on tx for almost a month in sept. my doc forced me off dur to horrid sides. my stomach was severly upset for 2 weeks straight, heaving and literally bed ridden. nothing worked, tigan, reglin, nothin. i was so fatigue i couldnt take 10 steps without being so weak. my eyes were so sensitive i couldnt go on the computer for weeks, headaches, and my doc loked in my throat and saw red spots with white and said your done. we both agreed it was mainly the riba, no doubt. as soon as i stopped, my stomach got better and better. it took a week to feel almost normal. my doc said come back in 2weeks to discuss tx again. i went back yesterday thinkin she would put me on in a few eeks or after xmas. she sent the nurse in and injected me with my first shot again. she dropped me from 1000mg of riba to 800mg a day. please wish me luck and say a prayer i can make it this time. i am a geno 3A, blood work and ultrasound came back fine. i have only had a viral load since 2002 max. prior i was naturally undectable, so i am hopin theres no damage. it somehow came back without any chance of reinfection whatsoever. i quit drugs in 94 and up until finding this out in july, i only smoked grass but stopped right on the spot that day. i have been smoke free for almost 3 months and stopped coffee as well. i eat healthy and have such a good chance to beat this forever. i pray i can get through this , this time. i hope your well and healthy.
GODBLESS

I hope you realize the goals you have set for yourself with your course of treatment.

But win, lose or draw, you are unlikely to have any liver disease anyway.

Pleasae do not fear the hep more than you fear the consequences of staying on interferon when you clearly cannot tolerate it. If you need to discontinue again, there is no shame and nothing lost by it. In time, there will be something better and you will be in a position to take advantage of it.


Hang in there, Bill. You are in my thoughts.
