Question:
I'm 43 weeks into 48 weeks of treatment (pegasys/copegus) Only 5 weeks to go. The first 6
months went be like a breeze, now I'm suffering the sides something awful.
Has anyone had treatment for the fatigue associated with combo therapy? With
the exception of Provigil (which my insurance won't payfor) has anyone used
amphetamines (ie. dextro, ritalin) to counteract the fatigue?
Answer:
Do you think it's just battle fatigue after 43 weeks of killing virii, or
something more? When was the last time you had a CBC - and what did your
hemoglobin score?
Hang in there ChefX - you've rounded the clubhouse turn and are almost at the
finish line! And forget about taking speed, fer chrissakes (I'm hoping you
were kidding). Your body has been hammered for 10 months, and it really
doesn't need someone breaking out the whip at this point.
