Avatar f tn The before insurance price for 180 1 time a week pegasus and 800 riba was 2200 for me.
862235 tn?1336060295 Which one would you all recommend she go on, the Incivek 12 weeks plus Pegasus 48 or the 44 weeks Victrelis plus Pegasus 48? I think the Incivek has a few more sides but a better success rate. Is that true. Do patients with a lot of Incivek sides normally improve after the 12 weeks? Any info to help in the choice would be great.
Avatar n tn I am 22 yr old and i have hepatitis c genome 3 and i am taking pegasus\once weekly and ribavirin since 19-6-08 my question is have i to do weekly CBC or I can do every 2weeks before the injection ?
483814 tn?1214311480 I am about to start Pegasus and Ribovarin Therapy for the second time. My doctor said that I may not have been on this Pegasus and Ribovarin Therapy long enough the first time. I did it for 11 months. would be interested to here opinions of what myi chances are of the treatment being sucessful this time around. I was really suprised that it come back. The first time I did the treatment I became anemic and looked like a ghoast until I was able to start procrit.
Avatar m tn Although I visited ophthalmologist for this question I was not persuaded that Pegasus would not interfere my Uveitis negatively. On the other hand, hepatologist told me that I may take corticosteroids if my Uveitis gets worse. I saw the post by Willy50 in this thread http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Hepatitis-C/HCV-Clinical-trial/show/1414377 . So please does anybody knows something about this? I mean corticosteroids plus Pegasus ?
Avatar f tn I feel like I have been hit by a truck migraines hot cold just a daily hangover on steroids. I am a non responder to Pegasus and switched after 4 months and have been on infergen for almost 2 months. It is working and I feel blessed just wondering how other people get by when it feels like you just can't get a moment of relief getting up to grab my son from getting into things is a challenge. I'm ready to give up please help on how you made it through....
Avatar n tn Will the Pegasus work without CoPegasus, I'm getting alot of side effects, I cant sleep and itchy rash's, I can handle the Pegasus alone but the Copegasus makes me feel bad. My liver function test are normal. Has anybody gotten rid of the hep without it?
Avatar f tn The nausea and stomach pain is not typical for thyroid cysts/nodules -- however trouble swallowing, neck pain, cough, and hoarseness may be due to the cyst. Would consider treating with an antacid (eg zantac or pepcid AC or prilosec OTC) - as acid reflux would potentially cause all your symptoms.
Avatar m tn Just got my Pegasus and co Pegasus.Was hoping just for just the Pegasus, But there was a study that said non responders faired no better than responders on there study. Why this applies to me I do not know. I am a relapser. This cost the insurance company big money. Any Ideas? At stage 4 i have no time to wait. Have had the same issues getting into the studies. Relapser. Life can be hard at times.
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm new here, and my husband is in his 10th month of treatment. Just had his second transfusion, and he isn't bouncing back. They upped his procrit, and he has had to stop taking ribavirin again. He's still on a half dose of pegasus and his viral count is undetectable. His doctor said he hated to pull the rug out from under him last visit, and it looks like I"m going to have to take him before his next visit. I think he may need another transfusion soon.
Avatar f tn Yes pretty much they do all mean the same thing ... the "polyethylene glycol" is what is add to Interferon to make it pegylated which lasts longer in our body than un-pegylated interferon ... And - "Peg" can sometimes be referring to the actual drugs Pegasus or Pegintron depending on who and how the word is used .. Here is a hcv term reference link in MH .. if you need to know any of of this new language .. Hope that helps ... http://www.medhelp.
Avatar f tn Mine has the same pattern. He likes to be really active for a few days then hes calm for a couple. I figure its normal for him & dont count it as decreased fetal movement. It use to make me really nervous as well but like I said its his normal so I try not to worry as much.
Avatar m tn Thank you for your answer, I understand that you guys are volunteers and i will take all information here as a reference not as a medical decision. May you please provide me with some answers for my questions if you have an idea about HPV ? if we agree that it was HPV, is it serious ? is it common ? Anything we can do for it now ? also, what about me ? i don't have anything for the moment and the bumps were taken out a month ago.
538697 tn?1218411482 ve been regaining my good health. For more than 2 weeks, I did not need the meds for PAIN. I was taking the pills strictly so I would not get physically ill. Yesterday, was the last time I took a Lortab and today I received 2 Suboxone tablets and was sent home with a 3rd pill to take later when I become symptomatic. My question is this.... realistically, in a week, I will be detoxed from the Lortab pills. So what kind of withdrawal symptoms will I have with the Suboxone, if any?
681148 tn?1437661591 Thanks for the infor about the IBS. I will keep an eye out for worsening symptoms, since I am still having big issues with my IBS. I appreciate your telling me this important information.
Avatar f tn THANKS. Please can you follow me a little and understand and feel my anxiety and fear? I know the modes of transmission that you mentioned. I would like to have explanations and details from you about my situation, please. why it is not possible to contaminate, because I am a little worried. Can HIV live in the blood on the table and cannot infect me even if it enters my veins through the needle, whether from the table or through the nurse's hand when Does he touch the needle?
Avatar f tn Advice me sir when I think about testing I think that is unrealistic to happen and thinking about hiv is worst thing. I want to know is it possible to get hiv if they use contaminated needle or syringe. In India there health system is not that good and if I talk to my friends they laughed on me. And the day I thought about it got virul fever so got feeling that is hiv the cause of it. Give me your view on it.
Avatar f tn VE BEEN FAIRLY SMALL ALL MY LIFE EVEN AFTER THE BIRTH OF MY FOUR KIDS. I STARTED GAINING WEIGHT ABOUT 2 TO 3 YEARS AGO GETTING UP TO 158 POUNDS AND I WAS ALWAYS AT 109 TO 120. I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF I SHOULD START WATCHING MY WEIGHT WITH THE REMOVAL. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT MY POTASSIUM IS DROPPING AND THAT THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE THYROID SO IS THIS TRUE? I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I HAVE A BRUIT ON BOTH CAROTID ARTERIES AND A TIA. ARE THESE CONDITIONS RELATED TO THIS ISSUE AS WELL?
Avatar f tn Thanks so much for the information. My doc is aware of all my health issues (due to me being very vocal about it; almost on the verge of paranoid, Lol) Thanks for your time & have a great day!
