DMT Side Effects
Hi guys,
I started Betaferon 4 weeks ago. Quarter dose for 2 weeks, half doses for 2 weeks and now I am on 3 quarters of a dose. The first 4 weeks were fine but with the 3 quarters, not so fine. I took my injection at 8:45pm last night, it's now 9am and I can't get out of bed. My head is exploding and I have the standard flu symptoms that I've read about. My question is, if I'm like this on 3 quarters I can only assume I'll still be like this if not worse on a full dose so how am I supposed to continue with life as normal if I can't get out of bed? I couldn't go to work today but I can't do that every second day. My nurse came to see me the other day and thinks I'm mildly depressed so asked me to go to the doctor. He'll probably prescribe with with some medication. I was diagnosed around 2 months ago so it's all still a bit fresh but I'm really starting to get a bit fed up by the whole thing already
@mari365 , these are initial side effects, which will improve over a short period of time. If you were still suffering from the flu-like side effects first thing in the morning, then consider taking the shot earlier in the evening. By altering the timing, you should be able to sleep through these initial side effects. I used to take my shots at 19:00 and used to go to bed as soon as I got the shivers. I used to be fine the next morning. :wink:
Thank you. I'll try taking it at 19:00 and see how that works. It's a steep learning curve this whole thing :)
