How long before I feel side effects
Hello all - I started treatment last Thursday, had chills, small nausea and bit heavy head for a few hours and have felt better than ever - ever since? Gave up dairy, red meats and Juice everyday along with healthy food so I feel energized...Will it take the Ribavirin a few weeks to kick in? Thanks all..

Hopefully the side effects never kick in and you feel like this the whole time, the worst I get is fatigue and sore throat, but I'm now on week 9. Seemed to me I felt good except for one day a week until about week 7 than the fatigue started to become daily. Good luck everyone is different. Joe
Everyone is so different... I've been up and working full time since 2nd week. I do NOT always feel like it. I wish it were more predictable.
You will find trends in your own body's response. Like I can count on bed for 2 days after a shot and usually by friday I'm doing pretty well. Sometimes....
Lots of people are having light se and You may have drawn that lucky number! Karen :) I sure hope you did..

glad to hear you are doing so good so far. just remember to drink lots of water. also, exercise if you can. it all helps. thursday will be 12 weeks for me. only a little tired and a bit of a rash on my back. i'm glad that's it for me. i feel very fortunate. take care, belle
I dunno really I am having the ribo rash and sore tongue, am getting the miracle mouthwash tomorrow..1st week was nothing 2nd week a little more. This is my third week and just the bumps on my tongue and canker sores in my mouth. Some rash on my elbows. Can't wait to get the mouthwash..Everyone responds differently. Just stay positive an pray.
stay away from spicy foods and nuts for a few days, anal burning is a very common side effect, I had it bad at first but has slacked off in week 3. Keep the area spotless with baby wipes as soon as you get done with your business
Thursday will be 2 weeks I started tx . I have been feeling fine, no sys to speak of. I am drinking tons of water. So far so good. Good luck . Hope you stay sys free.
a bacon and egg burrto would account for 30 grams i think..I am going to try 3 teaspoons of penut butter later on and a slice of cheese.
Make sure you eat something with 20 grams of fat with each dose of incivek very important
