Remember its the inf and riba that mess w your head and emotions, especially the inf! Interferon rage doesn't sound as catchy!!!
Big hugs....I am proud of YOU!!!

Bago, I was scared to death to start too. Which tx are you doing? I'm on Pegasys Proclick (the easy shots) Riba and Incevik. If at any time I can help you, please just let me know!

there was a couple of things that I did before I started though that I know helped me out, and was very glad that I did them. I actually wrote a list of things that helped me through the first few weeks.
Seems like we are having quite a few new starters, maybe I should post it again. I'll do that.

You're going to be just fine honey bun!
Love,
Kelly

Been there done that too Bago. After the first week, you're less anxious & just roll w/it; get into the 'groove'. (I sound OLD). Deal w/sx as they happen.
it'll be ok.

Most of us were anxious, depressed and scared before treatment. There really is no sugar coating it. It is hard but it is doable. One day, it will be over. Line up your support systems. Do FMLA at work - just in case you can't work. Subscribe to Netflix so you have funny movies to watch. Stay on this site for help, support, hugs, etc. We will help you to get through. Mostly listen to your own body and be your own advocate. Remember that you are a consumer of health care. You pay for these services so be proactive; call your doctor or the med hot lines with your worries, ask lots of questions and take very good care of yourself. Be gentle with yourself. You can do it.

Honey.........you can come here and whine and complain all ya want.........thats why we're here............and everyone here is gonna get your through this:):)

I'll send your hubby some worms for his fishing trip......................but he better damn well come home with some fish!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whine On:):)

Bago, none of us did this thinking it was going to be fun, but most of us, like you, didn't know exactly what to expect. And each of us had many similar, and some different, side effects. No predictability of where you'll fall on the spectrum of not-so-bad to really terrible

The only reason we do this is with the hope of being hep free. And you need to keep saying that the strong possibility of being SVR is worth the temporary (but substantial) craphole of treatment

Repeat, and repeat again. Hep free in 2013
