Just so I have a baseline to look back on in case of Riba anemia:RBC 4.45Hemoglobin 14.7Hemotocrit 43.3MCV 97.3Only 4 hours since my first dose and body feels weird. Head hurts, mouth dry, feel shaky, little dizzy and numb. Head feels heavy and fuzzy. Almost feels like coming down with a bug. Hope this is temporary and body just getting used to meds. Will try to go nap for a hour or so and see if it helps any.

You said you are sensitive to medications but I hope these quick symptoms ease or you get a little more used to them. I was anxious when I did tx & I had this horrible fear of needles so before I gave myself a shot I felt like you describe. My nerves were a mess knowing I had to take these drugs on a time schedule too & there was just a pervasive uneasiness. Rest, take it easy & hope you feel better with more good days than bad.

Thanks. I pretty much slept all day today. I got up, made breakfast, did a load of laundry, and cleaned the kitchen and was DONE. I even missed my son\'s baseball game as I could barely put one foot in front of the other. Didn\'t eat lunch either, even though my hubby brought it for me. Really have no appetite still, but trying to eat so stomach won\'t hurt with meds, and getting the water in me for sure. Flushing out those nasties, I hope!
