The thought is in my mind too….but these are fantastic drugs now and you will get rid of it.
good luck!

geno 1a12 April 2016 at 1:01 pm #15314Really sorry to hear your news Paul. I reckon reducing high GI carbs and sugar is the way to go next time as others are saying. Wish I’d heard that advice before I started as I reckon high glucose levels are responsible for my slow response to Sof/Dac (I’m pre diabetic). I’ve relapsed so many times I’m finding it hard to stay positive about curing this time.
I know GT3 can be a bugger to cure but I reckon you’ll do it next time. Just wondering why you are doing Sof/Dac again rather than waiting for some of the pan genotype drugs in the pipeline.
Anyway, big big hugs.

SVR24 Undetectable 23 Nov 2016 yippee!12 April 2016 at 4:27 pm #15328Hi Paul – I’ve been relocating for the past few weeks so am slowly catching up with the news. So sorry to hear yours but liking your attitude – it is what it is so lets get on with it.
Thanks all for the reminder about the carbs and glucose. I’ve taken less notice of this while I’ve been moving and things have crept back into my diet that probably aren’t helping the fight.
13 April 2016 at 9:35 am #15386Thanks for the dood wishes guys and gals the Sof and Dac are Pan Genotypic Marie. We will see what the 4 week bloods look like by then there could be news from Barcelona regarding G3 tx options.
cheers

13 April 2016 at 10:13 am #15388Hi Paul,
Yes, if it was me I’d be trying the low GI diet as much as possible, it’s not too hard & sugar cravings get less & less quickly when on that type of diet. Bet it’d make a difference.
Good luck my friend.
Remember I’m always a phone call away for you

.forever grateful to fixhepc13 April 2016 at 1:24 pm #15397Paul, do you take R lipoic acid? I was taking it but stopped once I started treatment. I found it lowered my glucose levels (proven by blood tests) and I’m convinced it lowered my viral load as well. Might be an idea to take it in the months before starting treatment again to get the vl as low as possible. Do you know if it’s OK to take while on treatment? I miss its glucose lowering effects.

Thank-you Tim, Dr Debasis @ MonkMed & Dr Freeman @ Fix HepC27 July 2016 at 11:23 pm #21495That was supposed to be a PM to Archer, but it seems I’m struggling operating on this forum. Also wondering if Paul is an old Nomad refugee like myself. Weather he is or isn’t, the ‘R’ word is a lousy outcome to have to grapple with.
28 July 2016 at 1:11 am #21504Hi Skank,
I’ve removed your other post from public view and forwarded it to Archer as a Private Message. You can also send PMs on this site by clicking on the little blue speech bubble at the bottom of the side panel with their user name and other details to the left of a member’s post. You can read PMs sent to you by clicking on your own name to go to your profile where you will find the link in a similar spot. Or via the link just under “Glossary” in the row of tabs at the top right of each page. (If that isn’t showing click on the little blue tab to the right of the “Glossary” one.) Hope that helps.

28 July 2016 at 1:32 am #21505Many thanks for that Gaj. I used to be quite active on several forums in the past, but my cognitive powers ain’t what they used to be. Sure I”ll get the hang of it again eventually, and hope to participate a bit more around here when I do.
29 July 2016 at 10:56 pm #21633Alpha Lipoic Acid: I did too, please let me know ASAP if we can or cant during treatment.
