, Does your doctor have you on Zophran for the nausea, if not mention it to him. It has really helped me with the nausea, this time around.

Mike, I also had the terrible fatigue, but it was much later in the tx. If you're getting winded and those sores so early, you NEED to see your liver doc. Sorry for you troubles, tx and Hep C stink, for sure. Good news with the disability, tho.

unless one has good insurance, Zophran runs more than 10.00 per tablet.. this last trip to the ER, I was lucky the doc gave me 3 tablets to take home and a script for 14 of them and it was MORE than 160.00 .. so my husband only got 7 of them because that was all we could afford. The ER doc said that if it was so expensive we could call the ER back and they would change the script to compazine. I actually think the compazine works better for me than the zophran and I dont have the severe RLS and anxiety after the compazine like I did with the Zophran.. it was weird, my daughter had the same reaction to it as well so they gave us benedryl to stop the reaction to it..lol.. weird stuff ...

Hi Hon, lets just hope that you will be like many of us in that the first month is the hardest and then things will settle down.. If you have trouble climbing stairs, try to take the elevator then,, do whatever you have to do in order to make it easier.. I think the dizziness will settle down, but I dont think the aches and pains will. I think they are just part of the treatment sad to say tho... Im glad you filed for disability... Is this SSDI? I think you have to be off work for one year before they approve you,, thats what they told me and it took a long time for me to get mine, I had to fight them all the way,, they kept turning me down, sent me to a shrink and even he said there was no way I could work and even after THAT, they turned me down.. We went to the administrative law judge and he was appalled that they refused to take the word of my own docs and wanted to send me to someone who had never laid eyes on me.. it was long and it was ugly but they

finally approved me for 18 months,, then they tried to take it away,, but I appealed that as well and refused to drive more than an hour to go and see some other doc for an eval,, they threatened me largely and I stood my ground. I went and spoke with an attorney here in town that specializes in SSDI only and he gave me the info and the courage to refuse to let them bully me. He also told me things about ssdi that I didnt know,, ie: If I've never held a desk job and I turned 50 years old while on disability, they could NOT require me to take a desk job. lol,, you know that they never would have told me, but the attorney did.. and I sent them a copy of my recent biopsy as I'd just had my gallbladder removed and they did another biopsy while in there which said my liver was still very sick... and then I DEMANDED that they get any further medical info about me FROM MY DOC and not someone who'd never seen me... This lady from ssdi called and threatened me twice

over the phone and I finally told her to do whatever she felt she had to but I was NOT going to go to her doc that was so far away, that driving an hour was very uncomfortable for me etc,, they approved me again and I've not heard anything more from them.I sure hope you have an easier time than I did . Im glad you are starting the process early in the game. Keep us posted how things are going hon!hugsjax Matchinsky wrote: I’ve finished 2 weeks of treatment. Only 70 more to go.

aha,,, thats nasty,, my mom had that from all the psyche meds,, I swear these docs dont know what they are doing with most of these meds and recently I read a report that shows that they cannot even prove by any lab test that any of those meds even work..... but the side effects of most psyche meds are horrendous!

Hey everyone, I havn't been on here in such while, to sick! I'm just wandering why you would be on the tx for two yrs? I thought I was getting up there it's going to be 18 months for me. And I'm sicker now than Iv'e ever been. It seemed like I was real sick at first than I started to get use to the sides, at least I could take care of myself, than I hit that 12 month mark & man Iv'e gotton worse, my blood work has gotten worse, everythings gotten worse. And this quack I see isn't helping me, my vacicines for the a & b didn't even work. So I have to go through it all over again, I just started the series again. I want to stop the tx asap. Will I feel better as soon as I stop? Thankyou!

Hey everyone, I havn't been on

here in such while, to sick! I'm just wandering why you would be on the tx for

two yrs? I thought I was getting up there it's going to be 18 months for me.

And I'm sicker now than Iv'e ever been. It seemed like I was real sick at first

than I started to get use to the sides, at least I could take care of myself,

than I hit that 12 month mark & man Iv'e gotton worse, my blood work has

gotten worse, everythings gotten worse. And this quack I see isn't helping me,

my vacicines for the a & b didn't even work. So I have to go through it all

over again, I just started the series again. I want to stop the tx asap. Will I

feel better as soon as I stop? Thankyou!

I see him in a couple of weeks. I remind myself that Iʼve already

been on interferon/ribaviri n for 2 whole years.
