I have been reading your board and I am in desperate need of some answers. I have not yet started treatment as pegatron has just become available to me in BC (Canada). My confusion is that I am already experiencing a lot of the symptoms (joint pain, very low energy levels (I sleep a lot) itching, hair loss ect., that is associated with the pegatron treatments. Is this the experience of others before treatment. I do not know any one who has Hep C and feel very isolated. I have had Hep C for about 20 years and have never been diagnosed until last year and have just had my 46th birthday. I really need to connect with people who have an understanding of Hep C. My family can not see a change (except the weight loss) so they find it hard to accept the fact that I am not able to do a lot of the things I used to as I just do not have the energy. Thank you for the opportunity to speak with others infected with Hep C.
