Hello, Steve. I have had slight dizziness, particularly on standing, or getting out of the tub, during the last few weeks of treatment. Happened again this morning, five days post treatment. I forgot to mention it to the nurse the last time I was there. I guess my brain doesn't want to think about that right now.

I felt dizzy alot when I became anemic...not sure if you are or not but you may want to ask for bloodwork now.  The hgb levels can drop fast, as they did with me leaving me with severe anemia from an almost borderline normal.

If not anemia you might just chalk it up to side effects...but put in a call to your doc!

good luck,

Meghan

Feeling a little dizzy and i am 5 weeks away ending this crap,  they lowered my interferon a 2 weeks ago to 90 from 140. because of my white blood count  ( Started at 185)  My next blood work is on August 13 and Drs visit is on August 20th and I end on Sept 7th ( cant wait)

Maybe i am not drinking enough water hmmmmmm

Could this be the interferon - I started to feel this 3 days ago.

I thought it was the sleeping pills i was taking not sure any thoughts from anyone out there?

Has anybody experience this? I feel fine
