"The patient has been taken to (a) hospital for treatment in Christchurch," spokeswoman Patti Lucas of the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) research program told NBC News.

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 I was recently diagnosed with a large cyst (5cm) on my left lobe and 2 small cyst on right. Both benign. My questions is I have a constant sore throat and pain in neck and also indigestion/ in stomach every time I eat. I am convinced its my thyroid issues. The endo doc decreased my Liothronine from 37.5mgcg to 20mcg because of side effects. The last thing I want is surgery. Do others her experience these stomach pains/nasusea/sore throats.
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 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 Drink A LOT of water and try to get up and walk once an hour on the plane. Research hospitals/doctors in the area just in case. Have fun!
Avatar m tn Hi I have an ocd regarding travelling by flight. From the time I saw a movie in which terrorist blast the flight i have developed an ocd regarding travelling by plane. I always feel there would be a terrorist who would blast the flight and i will die.
Avatar n tn I did a 3 hour flight each way and a 5 hour ea way flight and had to move cross country driving. I was in the 20s weeks but that stuff worked for me. Oh and i asked to get pat down instead of going through scanners just in case. I always directly asked a female agent and they didn't question it. I asked a man once and he tried to convince me for like 2 seconds to go in scanner. I just said dr suggested not to(she didnt but it shut him up).
Avatar m tn I I will be taking pegasus soon.can my wife be subjected to any of the drug through oral sex with me ?not a joke question.
Avatar m tn There are many benzos doctors can prescribe in my opinion. I think that a fast acting one with a short half life works the best for a flight in my opinion. But repeated/long term use with these meds can cause dependence and tolerance. Have you ever asked your doctor about ativan? That seemed to work the best for me, but we are all different in how we react to medications. You are smart for not experiementing on your own with these types of medications....keep us posted!
990521 tn?1311906308 Well, I was finally able to take my solo flight today. I have been trying for weeks, but weather problems kept washing it out - no worries though, that gave me more time to prepare, making today a great flight for me. I was not nervous, but so excited. I did three take off and landings all by myself. Next I will start cross country flying - short distances, then log some time on my own - a little night flying, then I am a full pilot!
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 What I have heard is that Pegasys has just one dosage because it has larger molecules than PegIntron and therefore mainly stays in your bloodstream while PegIntron with its smaller molecules can find its way where Pegasys can not. Every adult has the same amount of blood independant of body weight, and therefore everyone should have the same amount of Pegasys. One is also not to compare milligrams of Pegasys with milligrams of PegIntron. They are not the same.
Avatar m tn Seeing that there not doing any more trials in my area for Sofosbuvir I am now looking at Faldaprevir.Is anyone on a current trial with that right now.Also if you failed treatment with Pegasus,Riba and telaprevir would I still be able to do it?
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.
