Were You Damaged by Schering's Interferon? May 15, 2004
Hi Lloyd:
Well, things are finally coming together for this class action suit! From what I understand, we now have many people signed up.
I, personally, now receive about 40-60 emails and 3-6 phone calls EVERY DAY from people out there who have been injured by PEG-Intron/Rebatron. This treatment affects different people in different ways. I have talked to people who have gone blind or deaf, have muscle/bone/nerve conditions, diabietis, thyroid problems, on and on.
Thank you for all your help. Please continue to refer people to either Patrick Catalano at 619-233-3565 or myself at AGianni7@AOL.com or 707-537-7871.

If you have been damaged by interferon you should help straighten out the manner in which it is prescribed.
By filling out the form below, you will be represented by the most competent attorney's in this field.
You can help others in the future to be properly informed as to the success rate and the warnings.
You can help yourself by being compensated for the damage done to you by this treatment that is worse than the disease. You can bring the truth out, the truth that interferon is a drug looking for a disease to cure and hepatitis c is not it!
This class action suit is perhaps the best effort we can make in our fight for public awareness of Hepatitis C!
After all, we all know about Erin Brocovich, Ed Masery, her attorney has joined with my attorney, Patrick Catalano to sue Schering Plough in a class action suit involving interferon and its disabling side effects.
If you have been damaged by schering's interferon or peg intron, fill out the form and mail it to the address on the form.
If you have any questions, send me a email at Lloyd <at> hepatitiscfree.com or call 877 676 1615.
The goal is not to go against your doctor or a hospital. This is a class action suit against the manufacture, Schering Plough.
Lloyd Wright
Were you damaged by Schering's interferon? If so, join us on our Crusade to bring Schering to Justice Fill out this form and send it to Patrick Catalano.
Hi Lloyd & Felisa:
You were right about Patrick. He has been quietly working like a mad-man behind the scenes.
I guess tomorrow, he is signing up Ed Masry (Erin Brockovich), to join forces with us.
I understand that he has enlisted the both of us to come up with a bunch more names by tomorrow. I hate it when I feel like I have an "impossible mission", because I hate to fail any mission! I have put out about 100 emails and have had just a few responses. In the meantime, I just got a computer up and running, since my other one's hard drive completely fried! And, I am having a huge "flare-up" of my interferon injury thing - I can barely walk and can't lift my arm to scratch my nose!
The thing about me though, is that, no matter how hard the mission, I never, ever give up! We will find the way. Hopefully, you are having a little bit more luck than I have in finding some more people. Let me know if you need me to do anything!
Thank you so very much for helping me so much!!! I couldn't have done it without you. I owe you a lot - I will also find a way to repay you both.

I think even on the brochures it says a small number of people suffer long term damage and a few die from treatment. When I read that I thought how long before the lawsuits begin... I don't know what to make of it either.
TPasco8136 - 22 Aug 2004 13:15 GMT In answer to your question, in my Liver Support Group there are 2 cases of Heart Attacks while on Pegintron, as well as one with vision problems and 2 with thyroid problems. In Hep-c chat rooms I frequent it seems that Rheumatoid Arthritis is rather common amongst those who have done 48 weeks Pegintron. Tom

In the group I frequent, one guy has myathis gravis which his team has determined is a direct result of IFN, and another girl had Raynauds disease. Both did not clear. Many have thyroid dysfunctions now, and are clear. So, I don't know how this would play out. The risks are clearly stated on the inserts of all the treatment products. In anycase, I will be following this suit for the sake of my own personal interest.
Take Care,
Kim

We all new going in, the treatment was going to have side affects ... possibly long lasting. Yes, I cleared using Scherings tx and it was tough but I would do it again if it was the only tx available ... knowing there was a chance of long lasting sides. Long lasting side effects???Kill the dragon??? The only choice is kill the dragon. Brian

May 15, 2004 Hi Lloyd: Well, things are finally coming together for this class action suit! From what I understand, we now have many people signed up. I, personally, now receive about 40-60 emails and 3-6 phone calls EVERY DAY from people out there who have been injured by PEG-Intron/Rebatron. This treatment affects different people in different ways. I have talked to people who have gone blind or deaf, have muscle/bone/nerve conditions, diabietis, thyroid problems, on and on. Thank you for all your help. Please continue to refer people to either Patrick Catalano at 619-233-3565 or myself at AGianni7@AOL.com or 707-537-7871. Annie G. If you have been damaged by interferon you should help straighten out the manner in which it is prescribed. By filling out the form below, you will be represented by the most competent attorney's in this field. You can help others in the future to be properly informed as to the success rate and the warnings. You can help yourself by being compensated for the damage done to you by this treatment that is worse than the disease. You can bring the truth out, the truth that interferon is a drug looking for a disease to cure and hepatitis c is not it! This class action suit is perhaps the best effort we can make in our fight for public awareness of Hepatitis C! After all, we all know about Erin Brocovich, Ed Masery, her attorney has joined with my attorney, Patrick Catalano to sue Schering Plough in a class action suit involving interferon and its disabling side effects. If you have been damaged by schering's interferon or peg intron, fill out the form and mail it to the address on the form. If you have any questions, send me a email at Lloyd <at> hepatitiscfree.com or call 877 676 1615. The goal is not to go against your doctor or a hospital. This is a class action suit against the manufacture, Schering Plough. Lloyd Wright Were you damaged by Schering's interferon? If so, join us on our Crusade to bring Schering to Justice Fill out this form and send it to Patrick Catalano. Hi Lloyd & Felisa: You were right about Patrick. He has been quietly working like a mad-man behind the scenes. I guess tomorrow, he is signing up Ed Masry (Erin Brockovich), to join forces with us. I understand that he has enlisted the both of us to come up with a bunch more names by tomorrow. I hate it when I feel like I have an "impossible mission", because I hate to fail any mission! I have put out about 100 emails and have had just a few responses. In the meantime, I just got a computer up and running, since my other one's hard drive completely fried! And, I am having a huge "flare-up" of my interferon injury thing - I can barely walk and can't lift my arm to scratch my nose! The thing about me though, is that, no matter how hard the mission, I never, ever give up! We will find the way. Hopefully, you are having a little bit more luck than I have in finding some more people. Let me know if you need me to do anything! Thank you so very much for helping me so much!!! I couldn't have done it without you. I owe you a lot - I will also find a way to repay you both. Annie G. CLICK HERE TO PRINT LAW OFFICES OF PATRICK E.

I agree with your post about this class-action suit. Yes, the warnings about Schering's product (and all the others) are quite clear, so IMHO no one should be jumping on the lawsuit bandwagon in this one. Also, many of the lingering or permanent sides of peg-interferon and ribavirin are identical to some hepatitis C symptoms, and there was never any guarantee that successful tx would get rid of the hep C symptoms. This looks like just another greedy law firm and a bunch of people looking for easy money. Bottomfeeders all.

Waterspider Dear Waterspider, As your attorney I must inform you that your attitude toward the legal profession is false, outrageous, patently untrue, and in fact tortious. I must therefore discontinue representation of you in your defense against child pornography charges and instead begin a class action law suit on behalf of all attorneys against you and your estate. Please note that if you try to move your trailer house it will be viewed as an attempt to hide your assets, regardless of the fact that you owe over $3000 on a trailer house that is worth only $2500.

You should be advised that I have the greatest respect and admiration for most members of the legal profession; it's just the bottomfeeders that I abhor. Even if I did have a poor opinion of all lawyers, that would not constitute grounds for legal action because, in my country and under the law of my country, lawyers are not part of a visible minority and therefore cannot be victim to prejudice. You must be smoking your torts again, because you never defended me, or attempted to defend me, on child pornography charges because I was never accused, charged or even investigated on child pornography or anything related to such an offense. Don't you remember that I don't even *like* children? You may recall that I once solicited your professional advice on the matter of the validity of percieved threats made via a Usenet newsgroup. You may recall that I was somewhat taken aback by your reply of, "f.ck 'em if they can't take a joke," and relieved you of your duties on my behalf. About my modular home (all right, it's a freakin' trailer), you may be disappointed to learn that there is no longer a mortgage held against it; it is fully paid and has been for several years now. As for moving it, that would be beyond my means because it is permanently attached to a foundation and has undergone considerable reconstruction to accommodate two large decks and an addition. Moving it, in short, would require an act of God, and we both know how likely that is. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope your confusion is resolved. I remain, yours truly, Waterspider

People take tx to get rid of hep-c. Tx gets rid of the virus but not the symtoms. If the viral load of the virus is no indicator of present or future liver damage, then why is tx used to reduce the viral load.

If the viral >load of the virus is no indicator of present or future liver damage, >then why is tx used to reduce the viral load. Huh? Some of the symptoms of HCV are caused by liver damage. The liver will, to a degree, slowly heal itself once the virus is dead, so those symptoms are likely to go away at some future date, unless the damage was too substantial for the liver to completely recover. But if the virus has already caused damage in other organs, those may not heal that fast, or ever. You still want to kill the virus so it doesn't do even more damage. Not that complicated, or am I missing something?

Another agreement here. Especially if that lawyer really has a connection to the Brokovich case, he's one of the worst bottomfeeders there is. If you read up on the real case instead of the Hollywood version, you'll see what I mean. http://www.fumento.com/erinforbes.html
