Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I never had problems after a shot. Did it around 10:30 pm and was fine in the morning. Only once did I wake with shivers, but I think that was due to a flu shot. I used to wonder if there really was interferon in the syringe. I really feel that more problems come from the Ribavirin that the shots. Don’t worry, Sara………..just hope that it continues for the duration of your treatment!!

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 yes, it is working Im sure,, you 'may' feel something today or tomorrow, or you might not until you get enough of it in your blood which may take a few shots.. I remember sometimes wondering if there was anything in the Interferon bottle and other times, it kicked my butt hard...JackieSubject: 1st Shot Last NightTo: Hepatitis_C_Central Date: Tuesday, July 8, 2008, 8:33 AM Hello.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I take my shots on Thursday nights and get some minor side effects on Mon-Tue. I think typically most people will feel the effects of the shot about 6-7 hours after taking it. > > Hello. > I did my 1st shot last night and today I feel fine. Why would that > be?

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Hello , I am on week 2 of my shots. I will give myself my 3rd shot this Friday. So far I feel ok. Last weekend I stayed up late, had fun, went to the movies and only felt a little bit tired. So far my quality of life is normal. This afternoon I felt jittery. But other than that I am good. I was SO scared about starting treatment and so far so good. > > Hello. > I did my 1st shot last night and today I feel fine. Why would that > be? Is the medication working?

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 Hello Sara. My name is Trina. I will take my 8th shot Tues. I am doing real well. I thought the same thing as you because l didnt have any real problems, in fact l even asked my doctor if l got sugar water because l didnt feel anything. But l can tell you my blood work was doing what it was supposed to do. And now l just got my results of my viral load and it shows that l am undetected so it is working. I even went on a month long vacation while taking this med. So yes it is possible. But just remember that it could get a little worse. I now have incredible tiredness and headaches but still so far so good. Good luck and God bless. Trina > > > > Hello. > > I did my 1st shot last night and today I feel fine. Why would that > > be?

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 So,, what you're saying is that the "anticipation" of starting treatment was so much worse than what it actually was,, right? Thats what I found too...JackieSubject: Re: 1st Shot Last NightTo: Hepatitis_C_Central Date: Wednesday, July 9, 2008, 7:32 PM Hello , I am on week 2 of my shots.
