Sorry to hear this MJ

Like LC says
You know something is happening  Your  killing the virus  If you weren't experiencing something I'd wonder why.  I hope you get relief

Low grade fevers & Chills come and go  I used to get fevers  on Sat & Sun  They' ve seemed to move to midweek now

I eat what ever I think will taste good nothing fancy at all  not much taste good anyway      but I kept it simple like Egg Salad White Bread, Peanut butter & Pasta mild sauce Butter Oil little Garlic  "for me even if it is fattening"  the 20 grams fat  blows my diet anyway ( hope I loose the weight  )

The Rash (s)? This time w/ Incivek I did get rash on belly and arms first 3 weeks felt like poison ivy ( try not to scratch ) Cortisone didn't last  What did work for me was ALoe pure Aleo Plant   They sell a piece of it like  2$ in the produce section Cut it up and spread it on For me it held back the itch longer   I also was using Hawaiian tropic suntan oil  to keep skin moist It helped with dryness so I kept using after showers I don't like perfumed lotions with all  kinds of stuff in them

Hope you feel better MJ

I know you are on your way to getting better, but I just hate hearing this.  cry  I hope your body adjusts to the dragon poison soon and you get to feeling better.

I had fevers on treatment too and would take advil.  Tylenol is more harsh on the liver...not bad in moderation but I prefer not to stress my liver anymore than I have to :)

I never got fevers from the Incivek. I did from the shots though, but not until 24 hours afterward.
