I was recently released from the hospital after being treated for Pneumonia and I know that treatment kills all bacteria, even good bacteria. After a month, could this still be a factor? I am reluctant to continue ECT, the nausea is unbearable!

Has anyone had or heard of side effects from this for a patient with jejunostomy? Prayers are welcome and we are ever thankful for blessings.

However, not everyone who takes the medication will experience side effects. If side effects do occur, in most cases, they are minor, meaning they either require no treatment or are easily treated by a healthcare provider.

Some get really ill, with all side effects mentioned, others get some side effects, or not so severe and others fly through treatment. You can never know how you will react, until you get there. I have not started treating, yet, but I am preparing myself for the worst. If it won't be as bad as I expect, I will be happy. If it will be as bad, I will at least be prepared for it.

Hello, I was just reading about an older dog having a problem with urinary incontinence and the treatment she was given, particularly the possible side effects. My White Bearded Collie (13 years old) started being incontinent last year and my vet has prescribed INCURIN 1mg daily. This has been mostly effective (just the odd occurrence when she was asleep or distressed). I was just concerned that it may have some serious side effects such as those mentioned for the other treatment (PPA).

He was on top of transplant list but all 3 livers that became available were unacceptable. Treatment side effects are nothing compared to end stage liver disease so I am very motivated to get through this for my son and myself. I was able to work FT and care for an aging parent in 2005. She passed away in January of this year. I will miss her support but unfortunately will have more free time.

Some of us don’t get particularly ill from the treatment meds, Amy. I treated for a few years, and most of my complaints were centered around fatigue; I could have slept for weeks at a time :o). How long is your treatment duration; 24, 48 or more weeks? What genotype HCV are you?

I had an ablation last week for Afib and tachy and I have had non of those side effects. I was out shopping and active within 48 hours, I would get it checked out or at the very least call your doctor for their opinion. Good Luck!

What r the treatment my doctor said IV.but I C where there's pills so confused and really wish I knew what my numbers match.Thank you.

I am still in treatment, but I have read that many people deal with side effects for up to 6 months after they finish. It takes a while for all of that stuff to get out of your system, and then your body has to re-learn how to function without it. Be patient with yourself.

re still suffering the after effects of pneumonia. Six weeks is a long time to suffer with that and your lungs will take time to recover. I hope you have cleared hep C. Give yourself a chance to recover the energy. And as with all things, I think believing it will happen helps it along.

I mean some of them sound awful. Some good news? Will interferon ruin you physically and mentally for the rest of your life. I hear of some people who have done the treatment more than once on this site and have not complained that much and would be willing to tx again if need be.?????????????????????? thanks and Merry Christmas everyone!

So I recently tested positive for Bartonella and Babesia. Also positive for Anaplama, mycoplasma pneumonia, and of course - Lyme. Treatment is making me feel so bad. And it doesn't go away as you may expect of a herxheimer. I'm on Clindamycin now and I'm pretty sure this one is doing some killing, not just side effects. I've been giving in on a lot of medications, mainly due to unacceptable side effects.

The drug is a class called fluoroquinalones, and the side effects may include anything from aches and pains for months to tendon rupture. If a fluoroquinalone is prescribed Cipro has far fewer side effects.

So treatment was successful for myself and like i said, i had hardly ANY side effects. There were times i felt better on treatment than off. I know very strange, but each body is different and each person can handle different things. So don't get discurraged and think that treatment is NOT working just because your side effects are minimal. Be thankful and stay positive that you will reach SVR. The mind can do amazing things.

I am quite sure the treatment drugs exacerbated the existing pain. After treatment cessation things went back to what is my "normal".

Well, I seem to have caught a nasty sinus infection. Gunky discharge, face feels like someone hit me with a sledgehammer, eyes hurt, all that good stuff. Good thing I'm going to see the study nurse tommorrow. I was just curious if anyone else has experience with any kind of sinus/respiratory infection during treatment. Do antibiotics work as well as they normally do while on tx?
