Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 Yes , I AM glad I asked,,, well you sound like the one who just cannot treat with INF.. Im sorry,, and since you were not really responding , you probably wont ever respond to this particular tx and it is a waste of your time, money and health to try this again... what a bummer.. There really isnt enough of a difference between Pegasys and Peg Intron to warrent a try on the other med,, Thank God you had such a great boss!!! I still get totally exhausted taking a shower and have to rest afterwards,, it really gets old never having the old energy come back! lol,, Well all you can do is to take really good care of yourself and wait for something better to come along,, well you take care and stay in touch with us,, ok? hugs jax Ruggio wrote: Hi Jax, I am doing fine since I have been off tx now since July. I was able to complete only 17 weeks and had to stop because I was vomiting several times a day along with the runs several times a day and most of the time at the same time the last 2 weeks. That did not stop until I was off treatment for 2 1/2 weeks. I had lab work done every week from week one ans every week something else went out of wack. I was one of the lucky one who was able to get Procrit and need to do that a few times. My viral load starting to drop . At 14 weeks I was down to 600 and then at 15 & 16 I started moving back up. As a result of all of the above my Doc at Cedars took me off TX as I was resisting TX and was way too sick to continue. I started out taking 1200mg Ribo and 180 of the Pegintron. At week 12 they upped my Ribo to 1400 a day because my VL was moving very slow. I think that is what really pushed me over the edge. I was sick as a dogand seemed to get worse every day. I am due to see my Docs the end of Feb or March. I am single and work a full time job as an Executive assistant. I would stay in bed for days and when I would be able to get up to go to work my boos would send me home after about 3 or 4 hours. He was VERY understanding, Thank God! You know that after taking a shower I would be completely exhausted and would many times just crawl back in bed. Anyway Jax..arn't you glad you asked????? I do want to remind everyone that NOT everyone has this bad a time! This was just MY experience. This site and been a great help to me and I was so very impressed a couple of weeks ago when Dorothy(? )was having a very bad day and you all came forward and really got her threw it... God Bell YOu Alll! Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
