Hy Hygiea how are you?
You must get burned out at times to continuously get emails about side effects etc ahahahah :ahhh:but we would not know what to do without your undivided attention and support!!!!!!!!!!!YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is my new complaint for the week:.......first week I thought....not too bad I can do this and work 12 hours shifts etc......2ND week: a little harder more tired, more grumpy, moody, tearful, etc LOL....noticed that I can't walk the mall without getting a little short of breath.......3d week: now I am on a medical leave.....can't work 12 hour shifts....can't be on my feet because I am extra tired and have some shortness of breath as I walk down the halls ......I work in a hospital....my RBS is down so I don't take Lantus insulin at night anymore...also my BP was down and the MD stopped the Lisinopril...for the past 2 days I have been waking up in the morning feeling "jittery" especially over my heart, lightheaded/dizzy and holding on to the walls....horrible feeling, so I checked orthostatics BP's and found out that my heart rate laying down is 68, sitting is 78-80, and standing is 97-100, my BP's were from 112 to 128-130 standing...My heart rate is usually in the upper 60's except when I used to exercise.......had my first set of labs today WBC= 4.7, PLT=157, H/H was normal ( these are post 16 days of TX start).Is it the Riba and Pegasys?
???I am getting discouraged...called my PA and she said HR is not to worry about, rest, and drink a lot of fluids, by the way I drink 3-4 litres of fluids a day. I take 1000mg of Riba and 180MCG of Pegasys, I weigh 165lbs, my next labs on the 13Th of Feb, a month since start of TX.Thank you and I am sorry that my email is extra extra long....but you have the best advice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
