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.

I'm just about to start my 3rd round of
interferon
, ribravarin based meds covering 2 years of my life. First time I was non detectable at 48weeks but it didn't stick on my 3 month check. Next up I did rib' and int' in conjunction with telaprivir which was absolutely horrible.

Interferon, low mood and 5htp....
So I've been on
interferon
for a few months for ET. And whilst the physical side effects are unpleasant they are improving. The mental/emotional ones are really starting to get hard. I am painfully aware that I need to give the whole thing time to settle and work.

maybe i would have thought twice. At the least i would have had more blood tests and discussed them with my hep doctor before starting.!

interferon
+ Ribavirin for 12 weeks (80%) There are.new pan treatment drugs on the horizon for treating

HFI Patient Connect Request
Wendy underwent two attempts to rid her body of the virus which included
interferon
and then
interferon
plus ribavirin which failed. Wendy continued therapy and a 3rd attempt with sovaldi and ribavirin was successful. Unfortunately, with 35 years of hep C, her liver was cirrhotic.

Getting things sorted
I have failed treatment on
interferon
and my genotype (3a) is tough to treat combined with being newly diagnosed with cirrhosis and still compensated I can't wait any longer. I may need to take a trip across the ditch to Australia. We have a buyers club that can help us get perscribed medications.

Interferon
Interferon
has destroyed my life, I have cryoglobunemia, aches, pains, brain fog and extreme fatigue. I was not told that this drug can lead to more problems, I was not told that I could have been monitered and with some life style changes lived with the virus.

pegylated interferon?
She would like to try me on peg
interferon
as she feels its more suitable than HU at my age. Any experience of this - would like to hear about the side effects. HU going well for me, but recently my haemoglobin crashed and we dont know why. Its gradually climbing, but so are my platelets :-(
