Is it normal to keep a headache/migraine the whole time youre on the pegylated interferon?
i’m type 1a stage 2, had the first shot friday morning. i’ve had a migraine since friday afternoon and i’ve stayed nauseous. i almost recycled my eggs and bacon in the floor yesterday and i swear i will hurt somebody if i have to force down another Ensure. i’m drinking only water and taking ibuprofen. what else can i do? its only been the 5th day..

Oh baby…..call your doctor. There must be something they can give you for that. You don’t need to go through that pain.

lordy…I really have no clue, but agree with Susan…go see your doctor…big hugs to you, I hope you feel better soon
Get to a doctor asap. Feel better.
call your dr, i live with headaches and i know that’s bad enough, but the added nausea is the worst…your dr should be able to do SOMETHING for that… **hugs**
Call your dr. and see if he can give you anything for the nausea symtoms. Also try eating crackers, they do help and will help keep your strength up. You have to eat to stay strong. Wish you luck hon. :)
All I can advise is to fall in love in this treatment. It’s hard but effective in more than 50% of patients with HCV hepatitis. I’d like to let you know that these side effects usually become mild or even disappear after a week or two from the beginning of the therapy. Your doc should know about the side effects and monitore them. BTW: there are too many arrogant “HCV adcocates” on this site and only a few docs.
im sorry i dont have a answer but call the docter and hope you feel ?better? fast
look try to find a doctor
Call me at (480)-354-8434 for some information because I’m a dr. Ask for Ann Komorosky. Don’t even mention ‘iwuvpoo’.
Five days is too long for you to suffer like that. Call your doctor and let him know. Have you called the patient assistance program? They have a nurse available 24/7 who will call you back. If you’re on Pegasys, you can call the Pegassist program 1-877-pegasys; if you’re on PegIntron, call 1-800-521-7157.
I was nauseous quite a bit, and had to eat small meals (actually, I could get one small meal down a day) but I did not drink enough water to help this. I’ve since learned that the water consumption is essential to help the nausea.
I hope you are able to get some relief. Best wishes.
Cindy is the most knowledgeable person that answered your question. Do you not have the combo a-z link? Here it is.

Drink 1/2 your weight in ounces of water a day. Try celery for a quick fix..ask the LIVER doc what he recommends..different liver doctors suggest different OTC
