How to keep interferon cool when travelling
However I'm now on a cocktail of
interferon
3 time's a week, 2 hydroxycarbamide tablets daily and 1 anagrelide which I will find out this week if it's working.

1 rare disease apparently isn't enough! And considering Interferon
I'm sure there are other discussions on here (I will have a search now) but I was wondering what sort of experiences you have had with
interferon
? Is it
interferon
-alpha2b? - This is what google seems to think! Hope you're all well. Justin

Will leaving the eu affect our access to myeloproliferative medication?
I am on pegasus
interferon
which is produced in the EU. I understand it is an expensive injection and not always a first choice for MPN patients. Will the NHS still be able to keep hold of it or will it cost them more to receive it from the EU?

Don't most people also have
interferon
? I'm a bit concerned that I'm not getting the
interferon
. I feel it's reducing my chances of clearing the virus. I'd be very grateful for any advice or experience shared with me. Thanks, Jack.

Anyone with hep c who is thinking of starting a hep c cure. I think this is important to you all.
I did have a course of ribavrin &
interferon
, all seemed well but it didn't cure it. A few yrs down the line we tried again with just an extra ribavrin, that wasn't a good idea as I had to stop it early as I was anemic & kept having the riggers. This is shivering & shaking.

New to listserve: interferon?
My hematologist is great but he is against
interferon
. My concern is that I have also learned several months ago that I have 3 mutations on top of the JAK2 (TET2, CEBPA and BCOR) and I wonder if
interferon
would work for me or if it would induce progression?

I think I must have had every treatment available in the last 32 years; radio active phosphorus injections,
interferon
, Hydrea, Busulphan, Anagrelide, aspirin and clopidogrel to name but a few. I also have an underactive thyroid and take Thyroxine for that.

Cal-reticulin positive
My platelets having been creeping up, not managed by 2 gm per day hrdroxycarbamide (3 days) with 1.5 gm on alternate days, so have just started peg
interferon
. My haematologist says nothing to worry about, but of course I can't read enough about it. Does anyone else have a similar experience?

Hep c and Lupus ? Is there a connection?
I was sent immediately to a Gastroenterologist who put me on
interferon
and ribivirin for hep c. (2002 remember). It didn't work. So, my flare ups (assumed to be hep c ) were managed with pain pills and finally in 2014, I rid myself of hep c 3 with Sovaldi and Ribivirin.

Switch from IntronA to Peg Interferon? Anyone had experience of this?
I wondered if there was anyone out there that has experience of switching from IntronA to Peg
interferon
. I have PV jak 2 positive. I'm struggling terribly with side effects. Excruciating bone and muscle pain that sometimes takes my breath away.

Struggling to cope :(
He's requested
Interferon
but they have refused to give it to him because he is only 32. He's been diagnosed since he was 15. Every time we go to the hospital we see a different Hematologist, there seems to be no consistency of care.

Rintatolimod
Rintatolimod also activates
interferon
induced proteins that require dsRNA for activity (e.g.- 2ʹ-5ʹ adenylate synthetase, protein kinase R).

Hepatitis C - Doctor - Profound ignorance
I have Hepatitis C from 2011, I was treated with Ribavirin and
interferon
for 6 months. After this HCV was undetectable. In November 2014, my GP tells me that Hepatitis C is back in my body. They send me to a specialist after 5 months.

Itching
Numerous anti-histamines, cimetidine, paroxetine, steroids ,thalidomide,
interferon
( made it worse). The only thing that helped was very large doses of PUVA but had to stop as after about 18 months was getting up to max lifetime dose due to skin cancer risk.
