Hello
I have been absent for a couple of weeks…I have currently passed the 6 weeks mark of treatment and am on the downhill run…at week 4 I had my bloods done and I am HCV free…with normal liver function tests…great news as I have had hep C for 40 years…sleeping patterns still interrupted but getting used to it. I am doing so much at the moment..without the normal dragging myself around..I have much more energy…For the first time in years I have a clear head, no brain fog, I have no nausea, no tightness in my liver and more energy…
Have just turned on the TV and seen the news about the announcement of the new drugs on PBS..fantastic!!! It gives so many people the chance of a cure.
I thought for a moment... should I have waited for the announcement and not purchased the drugs? And the answer is NO!! I have absolutely no regrets or doubts that paying for the drugs was a mistake. It has been incredibly empowering for me to value my life and take it into my own hands without waiting or stalling, being able to make my own decisions and not getting any sicker has been one of the best things I have done. As soon as I started treatment the anxiety of waiting left me.
