I have to wonder whether this article carries any real weight in the medical
community. It's written so poorly it's hard to believe it was ever reviewed.
Paragraphs ending in mid-sentence, sentences ending in mid-thought...

As for the conclusion, the author clearly isn't convinced that tx using IFN is
the way to go...

Cheers

The link .. full story .. costs ten bucks and a credit card ..

Sooo .. that effectively stops me from accessing .. it ..

But .. it was mainly placed to show .. specifically .. interferon CAN
and does decrease erythrocytosis .. and therefore places
erythrocytosis .. 'possibly' .. involved ..

Soooo .. I placed the article to show it IS used to treat
erythrocytosis .. and since hepatitis is an iron loading disease and
since erythrocytosis is an iron loading disease then the fact it is
USED in hepatitis means .. there may be erythrocytosis ..
lingering ..

Since they purportedly have "no idea" .. why / how it actually is
doing its' .. job / working / mode OF operation.

Sooo .. since iron reduction .. works .. and since interferon also ..
works .. means .. more evidence to .. erythrocytosis BEING ..
involved .. because .. ? both interferon and iron reduction are USED
to treat erythrocytosis.

Sooo .. in conclusion .. increased red blood cell production .. higher
hemoglobin .. 'may' be involved IN the pathogenesis of ANY disease in
which interferon has been shown to have .. efficacy.

IMHO ..

Um....ok, I can see your sense of logic is working hard on this one.

I'm just waiting for someone in authority to ring you up
for ellipses abuse ;-)

Ok, Tom, I'm really curious. What is your story? I assume you have HCV, is
that correct? Have you ever tried treatment? And since iron is such a huge
concern of yours, what do you do for yourself and how has it affected your
HCV and/or liver?

I'm not being sarcastic. You've popped in and out of here a lot but never
said anything about yourself.
