God, this is disgusting. Well, actually its not. It’s par for the course for the VA to treat Vets this way so I can’t be surprised by it. From the Muskogee (we don’t smoke marywanna) Oklahoma RO  we are treated to this latest legal miscarriage:

Jez, does any of this sound familiar to you Vets who had the guts to go through with IFN Tx? I did one dose of it and almost kicked the bucket. My fever hit 104.6 and stayed there for almost 8 hours. Have you ever done an ice bath? With a fever? I realize this isn’t the norm for this drug, but the eyesight loss and Fibromyalgia I can sympathize with. This Vet is a Poster child for not doing IFN. It’s some pretty skanky stuff. I’ve met Vets that did it 3 times with no success. They must have hair growing on the hair on their chests. No thank you. I prefer to feel mildly miserable and tired rather than the panoply of ailments this gentleman is experiencing.

Let this also be a cheap instructional booklet for what to expect from the VA if you follow their plan. I’m sure somewhere along the line they will hand you a disclaimer that absolves them of any blame for the consequences. As I said, par for the course with them.
