Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I have been on the treatment for 21 weeks and for the last month I have been getting recurring pink eye aka conjunctivitis. It is itchy, and painful and my eyes are very red. I talked to the hepc nurse about it and she said that is not a side effect of treatment. She says this a lot lately. I also have extreme shoulder pain and (insert sarcasm here) of course this can't possibly be related to the treatment either. I have heard that eye problems can stop treatment right away. Maybe it is time for an appointment with the eye doc. It is better to be safe with our vision.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 thanks kathy- I will let you know what the doc says as well- i feel I tell my doc every little symptom and I didn't want to start having him think that I am a hypochondriac (:-)) so that's why I appreciate having this place- thanks a lot for the info. dylan --- Kathy Kostjal <happyhiker91214@...> wrote: > I have been on the treatment for 21 weeks and for > the last month I have been getting recurring pink > eye aka conjunctivitis.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Another place I find (sometimes more reliable) side effect information is the pharmacist. Seems that my pharmacist knows the " sides " that haven't been documented yet. And he can explain them better to me. He knows in detail exactly how his chemicals affect the human body, and knows quite a bit about the differences between humans and how come different humans are affected different ways. I got a good pharmacist. Sally One Word > > > > Describe me in ONE WORD...just one word!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Shoulder Pain CAN be related to liver,,, its called "referred pain" and if the sac surrounding the liver is swollen, it can push up on the diaphram and THAT can cause shoulder pain as both the shoulder and diaphram are innervated at the same spine level and one can affect the other... <mpence@...> wrote: if your shoulder pain is not related then where are the muscle aches and pains to be? in your big toe??? yes friday i have to go have my eyes tested to make sure they are healty enough to with stand treatment.. fun fun huh?
