Your a shinning star of the fix it show Mike . You exude warmth and genuine kindness. Thanks for being part of this special place. Congratulations.... Poodle Jill
Geno1a 35years fibrosis 2 or 3 different results from different hospitals ??
24weeks mesochem sof/led as unsure of fibrosis status.
currently UND. No bad side effects
Have svr12 ... waiting for svr 24
I now have SVR 36 weeks.
Thanks Mike for being a constant help. Congratulations and
I celebrated end of 12 weeks of pills with a white wine, much enjoyed and a light ale...I don't know whether to test viral load now and again in 12 weeks or just wait the next 12 weeks and get it done. I was nil at 4 weeks.
My next issue is getting the poor old organ as good as it can be again, detoxing from the meds - anyone try saunas? and apparently milk thistle is a terrific help in all things liver.
Gratitude to all on here !
Some stuff re Milk Thistle (see the side panel and links ) and other helpful tips BUT BEWARE they are hoping to sell you super expensive powder drink mix...rip off but lots of 'bait' articles worth looking into, with research quoted eg Medscape, ... www.hepatitiscentral.com/news/9-foods-to...e-hepatitis-c-virus/
Thank you sooooooo much and happy for your milestone as well. As far as testing goes, I followed my GI's advice: once you are UND, test at 12 weeks. The 24 week EOT test option is up to me. Since insurance pays, I will get it I imagine.
The 4 week EOTs: Dr. Freeman needed that info for his study, but if it makes you feel good, I would get tested each week!!!!Ha
