None A none B and all of a sudden theirs C
Hi to all that read this....... In 1974 I had a blood transfusion after a knife attack. In the 1980's I thought I would be a good citizen and give blood. Imagine my surprise when I was asked to go to Birmingham Blood Transfusion Unit as they had found a none A none B hep virus which was unknown in

Vitamin D & PCa Survival.
Do vitamin D levels affect PCa survival? Malmö, Sweden, is probably one of the worst places in the world to do a D study, since most men will be deficient for a good part of the year, without supplementation. Nevertheless [1]: "We examined the associations between pre-diagnostic serum levels of vitamin

Disposal of unused Pegasys Interferon
I live in the US, and am discouraged at the wastefulness that the manufacturers of Pegasys Interferon have shown. Each vial holds 180micrograms of medication. Without insurance, this would cost between $1100 and $1400 PER WEEK!!! Fortunately, I pay only $25 per week, or $100 per month, with my insurance

Pegasus interferon and chronic sore throat
I've had a horrible sore throat now for 11 days and I'm starting to feel very down about it (probably due to lack of sleep rather than the sore throat!). I've seen my GP who thinks it's just a virus which should resolve in 7 days (I saw him on day 9). Could this be related to taking interferon for PV

Grapefruit Juice and Interferon
I've been drinking pink grapefruit juice for sometime and then read the MPN Voice on Interferon which said that it was contra-indicated with Interferon, which I went on to in May. I've stopped drinking it but I'm curious as to why this juice is contra-indicated. Can anyone enlighten me? Thank you

Keeping Interferon cool whilst travelling
Hi all Just wondering if anyone has any tips for travelling with Interferon? I’m travelling to Portugal in a couple of weeks and will need to take 5 syringes - total travel time around 7 hours taking into account airport and transfer time. I was going to buy a small cool bag for hand luggage. Any thing

Hep B treatment
Hi all. I have not been posting for a while. I saw my consultant yesterday. He is puzzled by my situation and will seek 2nd opinion.

Pegylated Interferon available in Australia?
Hi guys, I’m from Melbourne, Aus. Can someone let me know if pegysus (pegylated interferon) is available in Australia? I’ve been finding conflicting information online. I’m seeing a new specialist tomorrow to talk about changing from HU to interferon, but I’m feeling nervous that I may not have access

Encouraging trial results re MF
Trial result of Peginterferon combined with Ruxo. Worked especially well for early stage MF patients although side effects/20% discontinuation rate a concern. Remember Ropeg is around the corner which should reduce Interferon related side effects. “Follow‐up was 12 months. Partial remission (PR) and

A nasty inconvenience or a monster, you choose
G'day I hope your nights sleep was good and your day is going well. I feel today you may be in need of a slight explanation. Twenty years ago I went to my first ever ms group meeting, I was 29 very newly diagnosed ad quite frankly terrified. I went into the lunch and saw a room full of ladies in wheelchairs

VonWillebrand and Pegasys Interferon
Hi Everyone, I recently saw a specialist in NYC. At the appointment they said I should remain on my baby aspirin a day and wouldn't need treatment until I was older for my ET (CALR+) (I am 41) This week they called back saying that my Von Willbrand factor was on the low end and wanted to start treatment

Hydroxy intolerant - Pegylated Interferon next?
I am just wondering if I should try Pegylated Interferon because I have been so debilitated by the hydroxy and fed up of my haema telling me it's nothing to do with the drug or the condition. I'm ET and JAK2 and intolerant to many drugs associated with blood, except clopidogrel, which I have been taking

My TSH is apparently in the abnormal range at 0.24. Does this mean i am being over medicated?
I became hypothyroid after receiving treatement for hep C in 2009. The interferon injections, which boost the body's immune system to kill of the virus, unfortunately also attacked my thyroid. I thought i felt so ill due to the treatment, but when they finally checked my thyroid, my TSH was 86.1! I was
