over here, i had a small setback. my liver function test was too high. Last week it was 160, this week it was 317, “normal” is 10-40, but on Interferon it is kosher to go up to 200. so they gave me the IV for the fluid, but are holding me for a week for the Interferon. i have to wait a week then if my liver function is back in the acceptable range i will continue. i have been told this is is quite common. so i’m not worried. i was hoping that i would be done sooner than later, but that is hopefully all this means.
stopping in the middle or modifying in some way is more normal than not. my understanding is that it does not compromise effectiveness. and when i made my ticket, they made me budget in an extra week “in case.”
So now the weird thing is that I am maybe going to feel okay this week. I say maybe, b/c who knows, as my weekends were worse than my weeks. That said, I do feel better this evening than I have for a while.
Sadly, it will probably make going back next Monday even harder.
