@fixhepc
Congratulations!! I also took the “Chinese rat poison” and am also cured!! I was on a waiting list at the Hospital here in Bendigo for around 16 months just to get an appointment at the liver clinic! Cancelled myself off the waiting list a short while ago. I agree that the PBS promise is not all it’s been portrayed to be. I really hope those who desperately need treatment get it through the PBS but I fear that may not happen.

YMMV

Thanks for the post PKQ and all credit to you for taking action for yourself.
I also have completed 24 weeks of crazy Chinatown rat poison and awaiting the 12 weeks post treatment test on 4th july, my own private independence day from the alien.
My thinking is even if you are waiting another 6 months to get pbs its still 6 months more of rotten damage to an already battered liver… why wait.! Congratulations Jill

Looks like there’s a few of us that received our Chinese Misochem Sof led around the same time.
I completed my 24 week treatment 11 weeks ago.
Can’t wait to have my SVR 12 blood test.
I’m hoping to join the ranks of “CURED”
Fingers crossed

Or do what I did and tell them you are going on the fixhepc site and getting generics. hmy:
They may bump you up the queue. Worst case scenario you can make good on your promise and get cured.

Well Doc, for magic to happen, it helps to have someone to pull the rabbit out of the hat or make the elephant disappear.

Thank you folks, for your kind sentiments, I appreciate it.

And, Mike, you’re quite right, credit goes to Dr Freeman. Even though I am not a patient of Dr Freeman, it was his example in treating patients, and Greg Jefferys example in treating himself, that finally gave me the confidence to send $5,500AUD to the heathen Chinee (prices have dropped since then).

Although, in fact, the results were fairly magical, within the first week I stopped shitting blood – always a good sign – and the LFTs at 4 weeks clearly showed I was getting all better. After that, it was easy.

2015 – failed treatment with simeprevir+inteferon+ribavirin
