Day 5 and the muscle aches today quite bad.

Hope will get used to it soon.

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.

Yes, it shows that the med is working

i have heard the muscle aches stay for a while even after treatment

more nescafe to ease the muscle aches haha

Now that's an awesome mental picture


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

Did u get anything worse than muscle aches?

Day 8 on twinvir

Alt 237 baseline dropped to 56

Ast 127 baseline dropped to 27

Very happy as alt has never been normal before

Here are the stats on viral load versus time:

Diarrhea day 2. Hope body will be able to adapt soon

which is the best time to take twinvir? morning or evening?

The doc said same time everyday

I took in morning

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.

Today feeling better except for some bloatedness

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

Thank u

Today is day 12 and I am feeling fine

The good doc is right

Harvoni is mild
