Pegintron , that's what I thought...its a killer compare tO Pegasys but it's definitely tolerable. I did have pains and aches for a few days after the injection and was on Tylenol daily. Be strong, I know how you feel but it should get a little easier as you go on. Best of luck!

Are you on pegintron or pegasys? I had fevers on pegintron. Regardless, this is not commOn but some people experience fevers even daily. To be on a safe side, call up you doctor to make sure you don't have anything else going on like infection. Feel better!

So last thur I did shot 19 of 24. This is worse than shot 1 because it is lasting longer and max temp is higher. I am starting to think dr needs to change dosage because I have lost 20 pound since I started. Anyone go through something like this and wanted yells opinion.
