Suffering From Late Stage Lyme Disease, On Antibiotics. Also Suffering From Hepatitis C. Got Approved For Interfuron Treatment. Worried
Hi, I am currently battling with Late Stage Lyme Disease and I am on my 4th course of antibiotcs. I also have Hepatits C and have been desparately seeking out treatment for over a year now (before the lyme). I finally just got approved for the Interfuron treatment thru a clinical trial and the time period available is in a month. If I do not do the trial...I will lose the opportunity. But I'm having a very hard time with the lyme disease and I am worried if there would be any effect on the lymes from being on interfuron?
I understand your concerns. I am glad that you are being treated for Lyme disease and hopefully the 4th course of antibiotics will help get rid of the infection. Also with the Hepatitis C, it seems like your insurance has finally approved the interferon treatment or you have been having issues with going on clinical trial and have finally decided on it. I wish you the very best in your endeavors.
I hope this helped and I wish you the very best. Take care!
