Dear Tatezi,

Welcome to this group! I'm glad you found us.

The irritability you ask about is a VERY common

side effect. It is a part of the depression that can

be caused by both the interferon and the ribavirin.

When I was on treatment my whole family learned to

stay out of my way! I would actually go around and

LOOK for things to bitch about. And I knew I was doing

it, but I just couldn't make myself stop!!! Which of

course made me feel even worse. I'm surprised my

husband didn't divorce me. My doctor offered me

anti-depressants, but I was very stubborn and refused

to take them. It wasn't until I was about 10 months

into treatment that I realized how awful I was to be

around when we went on vacation with my Dad, and I

ruined the whole trip for everyone with my

irritability and moodiness. I kept hearing (over and

over again) my husband telling my dad, " it's the

medications making her this way! " I was still too

stubborn to ask my doctor for an antidepressant, so I

started taking St. 's Wort. It helped quite a

bit, but if/when I try a treatment (I'm a

non-responder) again I will probably ask about an

antidepressant when I begin. I don't want to put my

family through that again. I am irritable enough even

when I'm not on treatment!! LOL! Let your doctor know

what is going on. You might want to think about

taking an antidepressant.

So what 'natural' things did you try before

deciding to do treatment? Do you know your genotype?

Take care,

Claudine

Hi Tatezi,

Welcome to the group. Yes, irritability, is a side

effect, I think we all will agree on that. Thanks for

the tip on the Ginger Ale. You have a place here to

vent your frustrations, if need be. Also a lot of

nice helpful people to help you manage your

treatment................Welcome Again, Connie

Tatezi.. nice to meet you!

I'm on my 6th month of combo.

I would get on an antidepressant real fast. I always recommend to other

heppers to try an anti d before starting treatment, as interferon is a known

depressant, and irritability is part of that.

They sure have helped me a lot. I went thru 3 before finding the right one -

Zoloft, which was ok for me but made me feel dull, Celexa, which didn't seem

to do anything, and Effexor XR which seems to be perfect. They even help me

sleep.

Tatezi,

Welcome to the list! There are a great group of people here to hold your

hand, give you moral support and who are just plain there for you. I was on

treatment for the month of September but was pulled off until they can run

some tests on Wednesday. I have been EXTREMELY CRABBY lately. Guess we can

blame the good old TX!!

Anyway, try to stay positive, and let us know how you are doing and feeling.

There are a lot of people here who really, truely understand.

Stay positive,

Lora

Welcome Tatezi,

The " irritability " you speak of is pretty common. During treatment I would

classify my behavior as near homicidal. The guys I work with would cut a

wide swath around me when they saw that bestial aura come over me that only

rebetron can create. Unfortunately this is one of the sides of treatment. It

was the hardest side for me to deal with, but I did and you can too. I have

been off treatment now for a couple of months and I feel fine now.

A lot of people say antidepressants have really helped them, you may look

into that.

Bob

Tatezi,

Welcome to the group!

Irritability must be in the air as a lot of people seem to have it lately.

what is your genotype? , glad to hear about not so many sides from

the tx, that alone is wonderful if its manageable, which I guess we all

are managing with it, no other choice really. lol

are you on an antidepressant? I think it helps with the irritablility even

though i've only been on it about a week now, I am in my 34 week of

treatment so coming to the end yeah, just hoping and praying that it

works. welcome again

Hello everyone...

My name is Tatezi and I'm new to your list. I was diagnosed 2 years ago and

have

been in treatment for three months. I held off on treatment for a long time

tyring natural methods, but my counts kept going slowing higher so I

conceded to

the rebetron treatments.

Had a problem finding a doctor to treat me when I decided to go on rebetron.

Apparently the first liver guy I saw was punishing me for trying natural

methods

first and wouldn't allow me treatment. They do so like to think they are

gods

controlling our lives. But I took all my records and test results and found

someone who would treat me.

I've been pretty fortunate with side effects to the rebetron. Haven't really

been

sick and the fatigue level is manageable. As long as I can continue working

I can

handle whatever comes my way...but the bills have to be paid and my 11 cats

need

to be cared for.

I've found that ginger ale works miracles for the metallic taste in my

mouth...and I tried a lot of different things.But the one thing I'm really

having

problems with is irritability. Don't know if this is a known side effect but

since it only started about a month ago I'm guessing that it is.

So I'm glad to find you folks to share this experience with.

Blessings

Tatezi

Hi! I have been reading the posts for about two months. I had my dance

with

Dr. R on 10/24. I just wanted to introduce myself and thank everyone

for all

of the support and information I have gotten from their posts. It has

been

an amazing experience. Everything has gone so smoothly and the results

are

already incredible. I am feeling better than I have in years. My name

is

Lease. I live south of Charlotte, NC. My family just moved here

in

July and I discovered Dr. R in July also. I cannot believe my luck. I

would

never have found him while I was in MI and I did not want the surgery

they

did up there. The MGB was perfect for me. I am feeling great and off all

the

meds I was taking before. I even have energy to do things now. I am

still

unpacking and trying to decorate the house. I hope to go back to work

in

Jan.

Thank you all again!

I am much happy to see the sponsor has many of the things I have been

state of Washington to get what I need.

I am in search of a strange item I have heard tales about. Many of the

gardening catalogs are selling neck bands that have stuff in them

that retains water and keeps on cool. Does anyone have any Idea what

that is? Or where I might be able to find such a things?

develop a whole new line of product for this next season

I am mostly based out of Everett Washington doing Ren faires and SCA

Tarna,

I just read your message and the strange item is called polymer

crystals. You can get them at most craft stores. They are great to

work with. I just used some this past holiday season for a gift

item. You can even find them in garden stores.

Hi ! You sound like you came in the back door of this disease, like I

did. I went to my doctor last March and she was looking at the surgery scars on

my leg and asked me if I have ever had a blood transfusion. I said I did, and

she said as long as she had my blood, could she check it for Hep C. I said ok,

never thinking the worst, and was stunned by the news. Good luck on your

biopsy, I was overwhelmed when mine said I had no damage, and I am 1B,

notoriously a non-responder.

Life is good, I am so happy that your children are coming home to you. You just

got your 6th grandchild, I am waiting for my 5th. They are such a joy! Life is

good, and I can't wait to hear more from you. I loved the message about the

wolves.

Guess I should introduce myself-

Hello;

My name is and I've been diagnosed with HCV. I grew up in

Michigan, but I must admit that I have not lived there for a long, long

time. But- its still home.

Holland is my home town. I now live in Des Moines, Iowa. I still miss

hearing the ships come into Holland Harbor at night, so my office is

decorated with a nautical theme, including a nautical chart of Macatawa

Bay, a statue of the light house Big Red, as well as artwork of fishing

boats and cruise ships, sea gulls, etc..

I'm a chemical dependency counselor; just finished a Master's in

psychology. I work in an outpatient clinic and teach Abnormal and

Developmental Psych at the community college, part time. My passion,

however is Boxers; my wife and I are involved in Boxer Rescue- our home

page is http://www.boxernest.net. We have three of our own, and they

bring much joy into our lives!

I probably contracted the Hep C Virus 14 years ago; after doing

anything and everything for about 20 years, I ended up an IV cocaine

user. The call about the test results came on my 14th clean-time

anniversary. For those familiar with the 12 Steps, I have started a 12

Step based support group: HCVA/

I was lucky; I started this new job last November, and we have a guest

from the AIDs coalition come and lecture about HIV and HCV. Listening

to her got me thinking I might oughta begin to think about considering

getting tested. When I learned I was positive, I called Sharon and she

invited me to a state-wide conference for medical professionals, and I

got to participate.

A little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing, so I've continued

to do my research while I wait. The results of my genotype test should

be in any day. I go in next Wednesday for a liver biopsy.

There is a confusion of emotions... One thing I am grateful for is that

my wife is negative. I have developed a good support system, and

continue to broaden that base of support. I've made a point to get the

best doctors. And I believe that God did not bring me this far to dump

me now.

I'd been feeling tired, wore out and achy for some time. I'd get little

rashes, and headaches, and brain farts. I thought I was just getting

old. When I told my doctor that, he said, " Sorry, but you ARE getting

older. " So, I'm learning that not every twinge and ache is necessarily

due to the Hep C virus. Still, it may be a long haul.

Thanks. Its nice to meet you all. Its nice to know I'm not alone.

Oh, well.

[Guest guest]

I also have Neboshh, however as already stated we were sold before the

Medic/Safety post was finalised.

My opinion for what its worth is to follow the above,we will not be left in

the sick bay as in the bad old days.

Tried to add a link leading to UKOOA as to a suitable secondary role for

medics,

I used my resettlement to attend all the offshore courses required in 1992

after 20 odd years in the RAMC, first out on the options for change

programme.

Flitted about for 2 years as relief medic, then given a staff contract with

BP, of course things change and we are now owned by Talisman Energy, so back

to RGIT then AON.

The reason I got this post is because of my RQMS course, they wanted a

Facilities Manager/Medic at first, someone used to controlling

accommodation, catering and so on.

Just as well, before that I was a section commander with AFV432's, not much

good on a platform.

Just a quick hello to all on the Forum.

I have been registered for sometime under a home email and have been guilty

of not inputing as much to the site as i should do!

As work has finally decided to come into the 21st Centuary and allow

internet access i am able to keep abreast of things whilst offshore and hope

to be a regular on the site.

I am currently working a Core Crew position on the FPSO " Uisge Gorm " in the

Fife Field UK North Sea and have been since January this year. Ex Army CMT1

Doorgunner/Medic, self funded myself through the necessary training this

time last year. Have been very lucky work wise with my first trip only 3

days after getting all my tickets.

Haven't looked back since and was offered a core crew job with Aker Kvaerner

starting on the 16th Jan this year. All is well so far, only concern is the

length of time left in the current field, opinions vary from 12 Months to 2

years left, only the man at the top knows?

Have recently completed my NEBOSH General Cert and would welcome some

feedback from anyone who has done the same, also any opinions on where the

role of Medic/Safety Officer will go and if it is a feasible option?

Any updates on where we stand with the working time directive as i am

currently working 3/3 all rumours flying around just now with only the P & J

shedding any light on things.....It is not looking promising?
