[|Human|] I am nearing the 10 year mark with hepatitis C and am currenrly prescribed Adderall for fatigue, Xanax for general anxiety disorder, and propranolol/paxil low dose to keep my moods stable... I have not been on interferon. My problem is severely swollen feet accompanied with redness beginning at the tops of my toes and extending to my lower ankle. could this in any way be attributed to hepatitis or a 10 day cessation of my propranolol?
[|AI|]  Hello, crash, Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor. You tell us that you have had the diagnosis of Hep-C for over ten years. You also say that you are not on any interferon therapy. I am not sure if you were treated with any anti-viral therapy before. I am also not sure about your liver function tests and viral count. You need these to assess the status of the activity of the virus. There are very effective Chat Doctor.  There are a number of options that you can discuss with a specialist who deals with hepatitis and has experience. Propranolol is a Beta Blocker and can reduce your pulse rate and help anxiety. Swelling of the feet may indicate fluid retention from liver disease, and you may have fluid build up in the abdomen as well. This needs to be checked with a sonogram of the liver and abdomen. If you have not seen your doctor recently, please make an appointment and you can discuss the things that I mention above and take appropriate action to get healthy. I wish you the very best.
