| Dear 
                    Lloyd, I 
                    have Hep C, male and nearly 49 years old.  I'm just recovering 
                    from a pegylated interferon - ribivirin trial. It 
                    should have gone on for 48 weeks, however after six weeks, 
                    I was admitted to my liver unit dehydrated and felt totally 
                    off my head.  It seemed that each time I took my weekly 
                    shot, I progessively got worse.  I felt horribly unwell 
                    right from the start.  Then later I got emotional and 
                    psychotic ( I don't have a history of any mental health problems). In 
                    the end, I couldn't drive, eat or cope with my kids, and lost 
                    lots of weight.  And now to my shock, my Doctor wants 
                    to start up again in the summer.  She believes that in 
                    combination with the right anti depressants an psychiatric 
                    support I ought to be able to get through the trial. While 
                    on my first trial, I was actually put on some sort anti depressant 
                    drug similar to Prozac.  This just made me want to sleep 
                    all day long, and when stopping the tablets, I felt pretty 
                    yuk and weird.  So, coming off them took another six 
                    weeks of my life. Although 
                    I was depressed while on the trial, I also felt pretty unwell.  
                    However, my Dr thinks that most of what I went through was 
                    in my mind. I'm 
                    now seeing a psychiatrist, who thinks I'm pretty neurotic. 
                     He wants to prepare the way to re-start the trial; I 
                    really don''t know where thier coming from.  I actually 
                    think I could have coped with just being depressed.  
                    My gut feeling is that they're all crazy, but they seem certain 
                    of themselves - should I listen to them? T.D. T.D.,
 NO! Your 
                    doctors are PERVERTED! I 
                    really hate to put it that way, but I am obligated to humanity 
                    and the charged words are the best understood words I can 
                    come up with.  Your doctors should be put on trial and 
                    incarcerated for malpractice.  Please do not use any 
                    more. Schering 
                    Plough is killing people and hiding it with big money. 
                     My program works better than anything the FDA has to 
                    offer.  Your personnel testimonial is enough for any 
                    neutral minded doctor to realize that you are not a candidate 
                    for peg intron. They 
                    are being paid and given huge incentives to push this drug 
                    (DRUG PUSHER).  I 
                    AM GOING TO PUT THIS ON MY MESSAGE BOARD, USUALLY I ASK.  This 
                    IS BECOMING TO BIG, IT IS KILLING PEOPLE, MAKING PEOPLE SUFFER 
                    BEYOND MY IMAGINATION!  I will remove your name, address, 
                    etc. Peg 
                    intron is now 'out of stock' for many reasons, mostly because 
                    it is causing problems in mass and complaints are becoming 
                    massive.  Since 9/11 many have been diagnosed and put 
                    on this criminal toxic poison.  People are rebelling 
                    and they need to be heard.  The FDA needs to know that 
                    since they are the Mafia of the Drug Industry that they are 
                    going to be toppled! Peg 
                    Intron represents billions of dollars a year and these dollars 
                    are shared generously to assure the continuation of this massive 
                    money making scheme. Believe 
                    me, this is a real event occurring right here in the US.We 
                    need to fight the 'Terrorists that are right here!"
 In 
                    good healthLloyd
