Guest guest Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 I know what all you maybe saying after I tell my speel.....but hey.....oh well......I have decided after thoughtful consideration to start another round of TX for Hep C geno 1a - Stage 4/4 Cirrhosis......why you ask.....well TX does cause alot of the side effect syptoms of an elevated viral load...itching, lack of sleep, appetite, not to mention that there is a very good chance and a bad chance that the progression of the cirrhosis to a critical level may worsen and or lessen.......the way I look at it...nothing ventured nothing gained.....so....the Liver Doctor I have has decided to monitor by blood work VERY closely to see if the effects of the treatment process help or hinder me...I was on Peg-Intron last time with Rebetol and now I am going to be on Pegasys / Ribivirin. I founf out this morning that ROCHE patient assistance program is going to sponser my meds and shipping straight from the MFG....at no cost to me.....WHEW!!!! For those in need of help contact the MFG of the brand your Doctor wants you to be on.........it's not hard and can sometimes be done online......like shering-plough (peg- intron).........looking forward to ppl that have ahd the same problems I have now and what happened to them......ie 1A non responders w/ cirrhosis 4/4 and doing a second round.......are the ones asked to comment regarding this......thank you...

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 Hi , Good luck to you. I like your attitude, keep the positive attitude and you can do it. Drink plenty of water, it should help reduce some of the side effects. I'll try to keep up with your postings in this group to see how well you're doing and hopefully give you some encouragement and/or support. Hope you win this time.
