I am concerned about your pitting edema. Pitting edema means there is too much fluid overload on the body. This is a potentially serious matter that is often a symptom of an underlying medical condition. It could relate to the heart, kidneys, liver or perhaps too much sodium in the diet.
I cannot speak to your belief that that your pitting edema is tied to your use of Interferon years ago but I encourage you to have it evaluated either way. Here is a link that explains it (along with more causes) in greater detail:

Hi, I saw that this post was on the very long post that has now been closed, it began with Melville's wife. She continues to have severe problems
I wanted to say hello. There are other people on here who have had long term problems after treating. Perhaps they will stop by and share what they have done to improve their health
Idylic had a good take on it on another post and that was to try to take care of the problems individually to see if you can get any help for each one
I am so sorry that you are experiencing long term side effects.
I wish you well
