                        I’m starting Interferon today. I’m a little anxious about the side effects. I plan to take anything that will help manage them. I feel good about my decision to do the treatment as if I didn’t, I would always wonder if I had a reocurrence was it because I didn’t do the treatment. At least this way I know I have done everything I can to help prevent a reocurrence.

                            Denise,

                            I hope your doctor appointment went well today. I begin my Interferon treatments on Monday. I will be doing my infusions at a different campus than the hospital as it will be much more convenient for me. I meet with the doctor at that clinic tomorrow and will get more details on time of treatment, etc. I’ve seen different information on this site about length of time it takes to be infused. I thought I would only be ere an hour, but some were there several hours. I will be glad to get that clarified tomorrow. I am planning to take all of next week off work. I’m told that I should know by the end of the first week if I think I will be able to work and take the treatments. That is what worries me the most. I get my PICC line on Friday.

                            Let’s keep in touch during our journey. It will be nice to have someone to talk to who is going through the same thing.
