    Hi Tommy,
    I’m 67 years old & today I just finished 168 days of Sofosbuvir / Ledisbovir , plus 84 days Ribavirin.
    I struggled with the Ribavirin side effects but just managed to stay on the full dose of 1200mg.
    The last 4 weeks of treatment I suffered a lot of joint & muscle pain.
    Also feeling fatigued most days.
    Now it’s a wait for SVR 4 & SVR 12 & SVR 24
