" I think it has more to do with your dna then if you are a girl or boy, lol! Some people don't take too good to the treatment from what I found out by talking to lots of people around my neighborhood.I take a beating and keep on ticking, the only thing I am mad at is the lying about how bad it can be. My dr.'s make me feel like the odd man out saying it can't harm you in any way. OH well I have xbox 360 to cope with the stress. Thanks for your replies, I am doing the best I can, still working also. "

" ha ha mike, i was forewarned that infergen daily had some rough mental sides. i always tried to decieve my nurse about the severity of the phsycosis but she could tell when i was about to crack. a mental collapse is an interesting thing. your body physically snaps simultaniously. i laid in the hallway at the va stress unit for a couple of hrs. letting the cool tile pull the fever from me. then it was manic f-in moe again. nurse offered me a nicotene patch, i asked for a thc patch. i had them sumbitches in stitches bitching bout my shrunken nads n shit. who needs acid? hell legalize interferon..
