Mu first self injection was a nightmare. I ended up with a trip to the emergency room with what I thought was Asthma. Could not breath. They gave me inhalled Ibertol and sent me on my way. Now I have an Ibuterall inhaller with me at all time. The worse side effect after about a month and a half is discomfort in my abdomen and stomach. I do use a sleeping med prescribed by my doctor..Ambien and it sort of works but is not covered by insurance and is expensive. I am a 72 yo guy and I am not working, thank goodness..but do a lot of going places to take my mind off all these new little pains and such. I fully intend to complete my 6 months and feel very dedicated to complete the program. My Doctor is very mommitted to me and my plight and I can visit or call his office as often as I want. I bhope whomever ois taking this hep c treatment does good. Richard
