I feel like a whimp ...

Given the hard-core side effects some people have had with Ribivarin and PEGIntron, I feel like a whimp.

On Monday, I was driven to distraction by the meds, and feeling out of sorts all day long. This morning, I was doing well, and now here it is around 5 p.m. and I feel as if did the shot last night instead of on Sunday night.

Given that my sleep patterns are unnatural (working from about 1:30-10 p.m. or so, getting in bed around midnight), I am considering another family leave stint. I plan on talking to my doctor about how the rest issue may be affecting how I am responding, the extent of side effects, etc.
