Thanks all, I'm relieved and breathing easier since I backed down on the ribavirin.  That stuff makes you feel like poop!  I was walking around like a bobble head.

I was wondering how that was going... How are you doing with that riba? That stuff makes me a twitchy, blithering idiot! I'm still at 1200 with zero interest in going higher.

Thanks BR, Shar & Willy.  You betcha I'm going to keep on keepin on!

Shar, I was actually shaking.   It was horrible, jerky motions and no focus.  I couldn't have kept it up -  back down to 1200 now.   I've gained 5 lbs on the puker fat freak regime so that puts me around 124 lbs but still 1400 mg at that weight is ludicrous!  I think it was jacking my BP up too -  last check was on 8/15 and I was at 150/106.  I'm going have to to the CVS and check it in a few days.

We're about the same size-- 1200 is my limit this time, too. otherwise shaking twitching and feeling like everything in the world is grating on my last nerve. Riba is nasty stuff. Still kinda amazed that I've actually gained weight after all this throwing up. Bleccch.  :sick: I feel crazy but I am looking forward to "just peg/riba". That is just messed up!
