Hi Matt Way to go … you’ll soon be feeling better than you ever have for years … this’ll be a game changer … drink plenty of water, maintain a positive attitude, and you’ll be HCV negative in no time (OK, to be pedantic: HCV RNA Undetected). Keep us posted … I look forward to following your progress over the coming weeks. Good luck & best wishes from GT2 P.S. I’ve got my week 4 viral load test result back today … HCV RNA is Not Detected.

You will be amazed. It's pretty great to know what normal feels like. Like GT2 says, drink plenty of water. Most people get pretty thirsty on the treatment.

| Thanks KB, It's cuz you guys made it easy, welcoming me the way you do all who are happily landing here Soooo many informative discussions from you and others. AND Dr. Freeman! I'm still stunned and humbled! How many professionals would take the time and effort to answer a guy like me, personally??? It inspires passion and compassion. Makes you just wanna be a part of it, even if it's only in some small way, right?

| Well friends, it's approaching 4 weeks since starting tx and I'm happy to report very little activity on the sdfx front. YAY! Been experiencing some pimples, breaking out on my face and in my scalp. May be reverting back to my teen years. Although, I don't recall the scalp being involved back then, hmmm, oh ... ok, yep, everything's "normal" my true age is revealing itself again ... memory loss Thank you ALL for the encouragement. It's been my pleasure and privilege to be a part of this grand experiment of the Dr.'s Freeman and Fixhepc. May it continue in its successful treatment of those who've been otherwise abandoned and left to die by the so called, Health Care Systems of their respective countries.

ma...Besides the VL, there are a few findings that you can get now that will show progress with the meds. I'm sure your FNP will order them, but just in case of miscommunication with whomever, make sure CMP's (comprehensive metabolic panel) are ordered or LFT's, if they can be ordered separately. The LFTs are generally included in CMPs. The CMP has other important results for the liver as well. You will know before July that things are working. Good luck....e. contracted Gen 1a in the 70's, dx in 2007...ast 27 to 35...alt 43 to 96...vl 1.2 mil to 8.6 mil. biopsy F-2 (2012)..pre tx results 1/23/16 ast 32, alt 46, vl 3.1 mil tx started 2/11/16.... lab results 2/24/16 ast 18, alt 18, vl <15 IU/ml 28 days later.............lab results 3/9/16 ast 21, alt 21, vl UND 56 days later.............lab results 4/6/16 ast 20, alt 22, vl UND 139 days later...........lab results 6/29/16 ast 28, alt 30, vl UND...EOT SVR24 | |
