I am on the Interferon self injections, MWF and I have 11 more shots to go…..I have hair loss, but mostly my front. It appears there is growth as well, but about 2-3 mths ago it really was coming out, has slowed down some now. I am so greatful for Interferon, but have mixed emotions about stopping….my doctors say I am not going to believe how great I am going to feel when I am done. I am looking forward to that, for sure, but part of me is nervous to stop. Has anyone else felt that way who has completed this year of Interferon…….

Brian~ Wow! you are really not far behind..I too can't wait to done, but am having mixed emotions. My "new normal" I have maneuvered my way around it. I almost feel like interferon is a safety net. My side effects seem to be stronger this last month. My blood pressure with the IV drip the first month went sky high, I do not have high blood pressure so they put me on Blood Pressure meds for a while, maybe 3 mths or so. My hair has fallen out but not all of it, I have lost 20lbs, but do eat. Very dry eyes…and of course the chills,achy, no energy at all, just want to sleep. I did get a cough back in April, so bad, it lasted over a month and they did put me on Zpack but that did not work. I now still cough but only in the morning and I have never smoked and do not have allergies Heres to better days…..you are almost there. All the best!.

Mary~ Thanks so much for the encouragement….I have mixed feelings right at this point. I am very anxious to start to feel normal but anxious about stopping, sort of a safety net this interferon. They say "you are not going to believe how great your going to feel, once off of the shots"
