My muscle and joint pains got worse (in the first 10 days) before they got better. A few other people have mentioned this too. It can be a symptom of the battle thats going/gone on in your immune system.

Just think of the pain that those poor little HepC cells are going through as they're being exterminated. :D

Now that's an awesome mental picture :lol:


Wouldn't surprise me at all that you might feel a bit worse before the virus really starts being eliminated. Hang in there max.

Enkel, take a look under FORUM - FAQ - HOW DO I TAKE THESE GENERIC DAAs

I take mine in evening, and sleep like a baby.

It's up to you, choose morning or evening and stick to it. All the best with your treatment.

It may sound daft, but what are 'fa bit of flu-like symptoms'? It may sound odd, but I haven't had flu for as way back as I can remember! I've had a cold and bronchitis, but no flu for around 20 years. Do you mean fever, aches and pains?or sniffle, headache etc? Would these symptoms stop you working or do you just feel a bit 'under the weather' as they say.

Either way, I do hope the flu-likes will settle down soon and I'm sure you will start feeling better after your body adjusts.


Thank u joy

The symptoms are sniffle, hot flushes, body aches and diarrhea.

Sounds positive Max, and you're only a few days in so far. Hope you continue to feel better!
