I started Twinvir from Bangladesh 9 days ago.
Can't believe is happening the miracle of this new medication!
No sides effects till now! Can't wait blood tests and VL at 2 weeks.
I want to ask if coffee is allowed, because I love it very much. Of course max two cups a day.
Easy Treatment and always SVR to all :cheer:

Hello! Great news that you have started your treatment and are well on the way to being HepC free. I know - it still seems like a miracle to me too. Love your positivity bouncing off the page!

Coffee is fine while you are on treatment and some (like me) would say it's one of the pleasures of life :cheer:

Welcome to the forum isaing4. There are no known interactions between coffee and the new HCV meds. And, it's official! Coffee is good for you:

Hi,

You have the same parameters as me. Dr freeman said that 1b is easiest to be treated. There is one study that with three antivirals it can be cured for only three weeks.


Good luck

Hi Enkel,
Wonderful that it will be possible a treatment only for 4 weeks. It's very important for those infected recently with no experience in cohabitation with the virus.
I do not know how it is for those who have the disease for many years, sometimes decades. Psychological element is important. It takes some time to get used to be healthy again.
Good to know there will be other therapeutic options. Because we can get infected again. That's how I understood from what I read.
We have a soft spot for virus C. :woohoo:
Easy treatment! And SVR soon!

Apologies for jumping in here a bit belatedly isaing4...good to hear you are on the road to recovery now. If you/ve only been infected recently then the experience might well be a bit easier. And yep, the possibility of re-infection is definitely there if you're not careful

I have the blood tests results after 15 days of treatment.
Yay! Liver blood tests are very good! Not so good in years! ALT 14 AST 20. Before treatment ALT 44 AST 37.
Waiting VL. Only after Christmas, I guess.
Thank you for sharing your personal experience. Thank you for very well documented responses/discussions. That's why I am on treatment for hep C and have hope that I will get rid of the virus.
Merry Christmas to everybody! :lol:

''Now the patient has access to the medications here is what monitoring on treatment looks like:
1. Baseline FBC, Cr&E, LFTs, Hep C Viral Load with reasonable currency + AFP and liver ultrasound for those with cirrhosis (looking for HCC)
2. 4/52 into treatment FBC, Cr&E, LFTs, Hep C Viral Load
3. Repeat Viral Load at 4/52 intervals if not zero at 4/52
4.EOT (End Of Treatment) exit bloods ''

FBC Full Blood Count and LFT Liver Function Test
What means 4/52 ? and Cr&E ?
Thanks :lol:
