then your sides from infergen may be tolerable as well. the va nurse said i wasnt eligible for any kind of financial assistance and thats what made the tx unbearable for me. the stuff does work, it had me und in 2-3 months. yea id do infergen again but not trying to work while being barely verticle..

if intron a or peg caused you too many problems barb, infergen would be more of the same. much more..15 mcg daily, plus the frothtabs.. its like a bad acid trip without end..

Infergen was used more often in the early 90's.
It is not pegylated. However, for some genotype 1 patients who could not clear with Peg/riba, using Infergen with riba did the trick. Studies found in patients, that the Infergen do cause more fatigue than Peg especially at a dose of 15mcg daily. What ever you choose in the end, I hope you get to slay that stubburn dragon of yours.

Steve, you are determined to beat this virus. Fortunately your sides have been manageable enuff to continue some normalcy in your life. You are a good candidate for infergen. If things don't go as planned, there is always return to standard. You can do this. Best wishes, always.
Infergen out of ? for me, standard knocked me over big time.

Really sorry to hear you have to repeat treatment. You seemed you were feeling good at the summer beach party, so I hope this round will be more of the same, rather than bring you surprises. Stay in touch with everyone.
