Persistent cold symptoms with Pegasys?
One great side effect of being on Pegasys for the last 3 years is that I’ve had hardly any colds, as interferon helps combat the cold virus. More recently, since I’ve reduced my dose to just 45mcg every 4 weeks, I’ve started to get some cold symptoms again which I guess is logical due to lower levels

Preventing colds??
Hi all, yesterday I felt I was getting a cold, today I am not so sure, thank goodness. These days I dread them. I don’t take things like vitamin c or zink and such, but maybe I have got that wrong and it is worth doing? Obviously I do my best to avoid getting colds. What do the rest of you do? I welcome

Two colds recently, no chest infections
Everyone in my office has had the cold, it went round like wildfire and, despite a ton of hand gel and packet upon packet of wipes, I Succumbed.I am normally very ill with a cold. Like most of us I get a chest infection, a horrible cough and I struggle to breathe. This time, five days since I started

Entacapon(comtan)
My neurologist prescribed Entacapon for me in order to prolong my sinemet effectiveness. Unfortunately it causes sleeplessness for me and that was at a very low dose just starting to take it. I have mixed feelings about this because I really do not like starting any new meds. I want to keep them to a

Colds and asthma flare up
Hi I have a cold(one of my main triggers) and was really hoping to avoid a flare up of my asthma. I had a bad winter with two very long chest infections, countless steriods and antibiotics and the weather has been against all of us with chest complaints this summer. I didn't used to react to normal colds

Comtan (entacapone)
Has anyone tried this? For Parkinson patients it is prescribed to make the levodopa effects last longer. On those really bad days we all have it seems as if I am dosing myself every 4-6 hours. I only take 1/2 of a 25/50 pill at a time but it would be great if I would be able to stretch that out to

Science or Snake Oil: does EASEaCOLD really help to shorten your cold?
[i]"There is very little evidence the herbal and vitamin supplements in EASEaCOLD Cold and Flu, Day and Night help to treat the common cold, or the symptoms associated with a cold. Some, such as echinacea and garlic, may help to prevent a cold, or reduce its length or severity if taken prior to the cold

Bronchitis sinusitis... comes with the territory?
Last year, before being diagnosed with W&W CLL, I got bronchial and sinus congestion that trailed on for a couple of months... This year, dealing with same, mostly sinusitis, but some bronchial mucous, etc. . Prior to CLL, I rarely had colds... now seemingly it will be chronic also. Surely others have
