Not really tweak, I'm mean I don't party much these days and I eat well and get a little exercise but nothing serious like ie. walking the dogs, chasing grandchildren, camping and fishing. I'd be interested to hear from others pre tx VLs compared to post tx relapse VLs. A bit out there I know but its not the fist time I've heard of response and wonder is there a common the catalyst. Maybe it's multiple and or random but would interested to know more. Em Geno 1b F2/3 snce early 80s. Treated in 2008_9 for 63 weeks on INF/Riba.

Hi Emilio I have decided I don't want to know my VL until the end of treatment - 24 weeks. But about 6 months ago it was roughly 2.5 million. From what I have read there is no point really because it takes months for the medicine to fully penetrate cirrhotics. kindly | |

Hi Dr J I am pretty sure I have the same batch as Chester from India and compassionate Daclatasvir so going on her responding and the previous despair experienced from failed treatments, is the reason for this decision. I probably will do it sometime, curiosity always wins out. 28 days into tx. kindly | |

My viral load 3 years ago was 5 157 834 My GGT was 47 - this is odd as in 2004 during inter/rib treatment it was 27 (My AST and ALT at the time were very elevated) I ordered my Sof/Dac yesterday morning - I've ordered 12w but know I will need 24w Dr Freeman has given me a script for new tests which i will be doing late next week I'll be monitoring things closely and posting the results in a separate thread rather than hijacking others I'm quite excited and very grateful but nervous as well My liver biopsy results were dismal 12 years ago and I'm mostly nervous that my fibroscan will show Cirrhosis Apparently you can have it without necessarily showing symptoms - I will know in a couple/ few weeks But i will leave the negativity there and think only positive thoughts from now on i'm preparing myself for battle against this virus and will do everything i can to help it work This has all happened very quickly and quite out of the blue after reading the SMH article I've ignored my hep for a long time mainly because there has been nothing i can do other than try and look after myself Nothing makes me feel sicker than hanging around doctors surgeries, hospitals, and blood labs with worry inducing results Thanks to all of you here, and particularly Dr Freeman, who can think outside the box and give the finger to the rich and ruthless i taped Dallas Buyers Club on the telly the other night and will be watching it for the first time this week Edit: Sorry for the thread hijack, Em but not worth starting my own thread yet and wanted to get my thoughts on a thread i follow 52 y.o.

Hi everyone, I've been away with my work this week so haven't been on-site much. Day 17 and no sides or events to speak of. Hope everyone else on tx are sides free or manageable.

Lucky you emilio. I have mouth and throat ulcers for the past 2 weeks. Apparently a side effect from sofosobuvir. Been drinking coconut water hoping its an electrolyte problem. Apart from that there hasn't been anything else. kindly | |
