I've been on Pegasys for 18 months and have never had that problem

Thanks Andy, it's reassuring to hear that as I've been doing really well on the PEG.

Great - it's worked really well for me too. Platelets down from 1100 to mid 300's and no major side effects. Just injecting 90mcg every 4 weeks now and due for my next check up at the end of June - fingers crossed 🤞!!
