I have a prescription and my bloodwork including Hep B test that is negative and my fibroscan. I know my genotype but do not have a copy of the test results. I have a denial from my insurance company stating that my genotype is 1a, they want an HIV test now. Do I need an HIV test? Is it necessary to have the test results for the genotype? My VL is 3,210,000, fibro is 0, ALT 37, AST 27

Hi Redhead & welcome. :)

As Greedfighter says, if you contact Fixhepc they will be able to tell you exactly what you need.

There are a number of contact methods listed on the blue bar at the top of this page. I would recommend an initial email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. so you can attached scans of the documents you currently have on hand as well as your questions above. That way they will be able to inform you if anything else is required along with other advice.

Hello Redhead,

It all sounds pretty straight forward. If you know your genotype with ceratainty we can choose medications, but if we did not we could choose from the "One medication treats all" range.

Just go to gp2u.com.au/ and register as a patient. Upload the results you have and book in with me and I will get you sorted.
YMMV

Hello Redhead,

The video is as simple as Google Chrome on any computer with a Webcam or just download the iOS or Android App.

Hi Redhead,

Just a quick welcome as you seem to have everything nearly organised. It's such a great feeling to take back control after being denied treatment.

I was also Genotype 1a and sourced my medication through Fixhepc. I've been HepC free from a while now and it's life changing. Dr Freeman was my doctor throughout via Skype and you couldn't be in safer hands.

Good luck Redhead - I look forward to hearing about your progress.

Perfect time to get treated. I did the same thing as you, denied by insurance and amazingly found this place.
If you treat now you’ll start your new year out HCV free.
You’ve got this, it is a real no brainer.
