2b Juen started dac.sof 9.4.16 hcvl rna 9.5 .16 says undetected 7 years 11 months ago #15986
Hello everybody! From Juen , 2b geno Here is an update on my treatment. Started the dac/solvadi meds 9.4.16, -a month ago. Hep c 20 years + Hep c quantitation rna 31.3.16 was units iu/ml 1,420,000-Hep c log 10 value, units log 10=6.5 15.3.16 ast 67, alt was 89 According to tests this month 9.5.16- Pathology Qualitative estimation of HCVL RNA( viral load ) reads -'Not detected' And Ast 25 Alt 17 So this is a good result I think /I hope!-with 8 weeks to go -finger crossed it , -the hep c , will disappear from my system forever! Side effects are minimum ,- compared to what I imagined. Insomnia, weakness, are the main, (had fatique , weakness before treament ) , I try and give the meds their best chance , so keep my diet healthy , for me means drinking lots fresh water, plenty of veg, fruit and excercise moderately daily , swimming /'water therapy' is easiest to cope when tired! Again I am so thankful to gp2u and hep c club for being here to help , by giving us great info , alternatives to often expensive and extremely conservative medical systems , -i.e drug treatment /$ choice , and great social support given by the forum folks! I will update in a month again ! Best regards to all | |

Hello Juen, Yes this is the expected result. The rest of the treatment should kill off the last few stragglers. BMS got 49/52 for SOF+DCV in GT2 so it is a good choice and avoids the ribavirin. At the moment we have 100% so please don't ruin the average! YMMV | |

Great post Juen … and brilliant results! I’m on the same path as you … one day behind … still waiting for VL. I too exercise every morning before taking the meds … I find that it sets me up for the day … I feel great afterwards and it ensures that I’m fully hydrated at the start of the day (I wake up with a dry mouth half the time). Keep up the good work , and I look forward to seeing your SVR.

Good to hear. I am sure you've got this nailed I take my meds just before bed, so they can do their work while I'm lying around not doing anything.
