Guest guest Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Hey kids, First round of TX yesterday, and the sides are textbook. Serious aches, massive headache, chills, nausea, and problematic dizzyness. Coupled with the fact that I am the main driver in the family, this is a real problem today. My wife is gonna go nuts looking for ways to help, and my daughter is doing everything she can think of as well. I woke up to hot chocolate this morning! There are a few signs of hope, however. I slept just fine, and had no trouble getting there, and I seem to have no reaction around the injection site. It didn't even turn pink. I'm gonna try and eat something now, even though I'm not at all hungry (duh), and then get some more sleep if I can. My hands feel swollen and sore just from typing this! Peace to all, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Alan, I was on treatment - and each week was different for me, the first week was bad - but not as bad as the second. And each day during each week was different. I always ran a temperature but never that high - mine usually stayed aound 99.6 - 101 - I would ask my Doctor about it if you continue to have those high of temps. The best advice I can give you - is drink at least 2 gallons of water a day - this will help with all symptoms... May God bless you and yours Hang in there - all things are possible through Jesus our savior Love, hugs, and prayers Marie -- First shot > > > To: hepatitis_c_Central@... > > > > > > Had my first shot yesterday.
