    • Close Hepatitis C

      found out I had hepc in 05. Have been taking pegasys for almost a full year my doctor says it is working and I have just a few weeks left. Through the winter and x-mas I was very depressed but now the nicer weather is here I am starting to feel better. When on this medication it helps if you stay positive-try to at least wake up in a good mood start eating better try not to drink and smoke as much. Dont worry be happy now!

      Treatments

      Pegylated Interferon Working / Worked
      I found the medication really made me tired and depressed. I took the 3pills in the morning and again at night with dinner + once a week injection. My mouth was always dry, had alot of trouble sleeping and at times thought I might be losing it!
      Ribavarin Working / Worked
      I try to get out, go for a bike ride visit friends the more you sit around and feel sorry for yourself the harder it is to snap out of it.
