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 f tn About two weeks after the surgery I started getting sharp stabbing pains in my head that started at the back of my head and surge to the front of my temples and the top of my head. Very painful and would last for about 15 minutes and then deem down leaving me with a nasty dull headache. I had a follow up appointment. Was told that when he went into the surgery he thought he was dealing with a cavernoma or a tumor and that he HAD seen a deformation in my brain that he decided to leave there.
Avatar n tn Pegasys is given in conjunction with Ribavirin for Genotype 2 and Genotype 3 patients. Pegasys is given in conjunction with Ribavirin and a Protease Inhibitor (either Incivek or Victrelis) for Genotype 1 patients. "Due to the intensity and major side effects of the Incivek, it has been advised to start with the interferon/ribavirin treatment. " ------------------------------------------ Who advised that? Please post a link to the scientific document that you read that advises that.
Avatar f tn Pegasus and Dr. Lupo, I have almost the exact same thing. I have a multicystic nodule on my left thyroid and every now and then i get a pain in my neck followed by a minor sore throat and some hoarseness due to a cough i usually only get when it flares up. I recently have been getting an upset stomach almost everytime i eat and i thought it was due to my acidic levels.
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 Hi I am Viktoriya.First week of treatment with PEGASUS and COPEGUS -feel very bad :fever, headaches, body hearts like- flu but stronger,feeling dizzy. Is it getting better after first week??
Avatar n tn After 3 weeks post pegasus/ribivarin (48 weeks responder so far) still suffering with rash, body aches, migraines, insomnia. My energy level is improving but is not great.
Avatar n tn Second, the Pegasys is BIG and slowly absorbed from the injection site and carried to the liver where it acts on liver cells. Its level in the blood rises and stays high for 4-7 days. On the other hand, PegIntron is a smaller more fragile molecule and is fairly rapidly metabolized and excreted. Its level in the blood rises during the first 2-3 days after injection and quickly falls so that by day 5 - day 7 you may have NO drug in yr body.
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 m tn I have chronic HBV and after about 1 year on tenofovir, I was told today that I have seroconverted. I also take 2 milk thistle capsules a day, don't drink alcohol, and drink a lot of cranberry juice and detox teas - so the doctor told me to keep up with whatever I am currently doing.... so to my questions: What is the relationship between seroconversion and developing antibodies. Does seroconversion mean that I am developing antibodies OR have developed antibodies to HBV?

7469840 tn?1409845836 I am on Sovladi, Pegasus, and Ribavirin for 12 weeks—and they are working—even on my uncommon genotype 4! Over a third way through treatment, day 33, 51 days to go! Doc has adjusted Ribavirin up and down and back up again, my hemoglobin has evened out, white blood cell count down a little bit, but otherwise other blood levels are normal. So excited this is working, makes the temporary side effects worth it!
