Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 The first shot can be a doozie. Let us know when it’s time and we’ll let you know how to prepare and what to expect. Be sure the Rheumatologist knows you have hep c. RE: Questions Thanksso much for your input. I did ask the dr the second time I saw him how many pt. he had treated for hepc and he said tons. I ask what does tons mean and he said many. I can understand the pill junkie thought. I have an appointment in the morning with the rheumatologist that I originally saw first. He said we could talk about my options for pain treatment and that's fine with me it's just my joints hurt so much I need something. What is also confusing is that the first time I saw the gastroenterology he said my symptoms matched those of hepc. Than I put treatment off for 1 month and now my symptoms are not from the hep c. So I agree with you that I need a second opinion and I have an appoint with another dr. on the 30th for a second opinion.You are all so wonderful and I think you have alot of knowledge. I'm sure I will be on here a lot after I begin treatment, that first shot has me scared. Thanks again you are all wonderful Connie --- Motley <dmotleybellsouth (DOT) net> wrote: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
