    Hi Another Attempt,

    firstly, CONGRATULATIONS for having started and afterwards finished the journey with the DAAs :).
    secondly, I wish you to have patience and optimism for the following weeks of “waiting and waiting”, but I guess it is by far a much better type of waiting than the “waiting to get treated” times ;-)

    Cheers and … I wish you to have a pleasant waiting, without worries !!! Next destination: SVR12!

    So many of us have failed with Interferon, and in spite of that are getting well both with Generic DAAs, and their branded counterparts.

    Congrats on EOT, Another Attempt. On to SVR 12!

    This time the odds really are in our favor! :)

    Thanks folks the support is much appreciated ,James told me bloods at 4 weeks will tell the story if it’s successful or not ,I thought 12 was the time frame but I’ll just do what I’m told to do ,being a G 3 worries me a bit because it’s the hardest to shake but what is what is I suppose ,have had a fair bit of liver discomfort since ceasing the treatment not sure if that is normal or not but will wait for the 4 weeks tests and re assess from there.
    Thanks again people and I hope everyone that enters into this battle has a win

    Hi AA, Congratulations on your EOT and best of luck for an undetected result on your SVR 4. I know the waiting can be difficult. I am now almost 6 weeks post EOT and still have some liver discomfort and fatigue despite exercising. But even with these issues I have more mental and physical energy. Take care….Fara #flower

    Congratulations on another EOT AnotherAttempt, may this be the last EOT you blog. After such a marathon I hope this is it for you and we see your UND and SVR start to come in. You are so strong to have done so many tx already and proven that you won’t stop until it’s a done deal, that’s so amazing.
    Sending hope and peace to you as you go through this waiting again

    Man AA! With what you’ve experienced up to now, it seems you have every right to be apprehensive about the outcome of your treatment and far be it from any of us to predict the future for ourselves or you for that matter. However, may I make this observation concerning your statement about your future being left solely in “the hands of fate.” If you truly believed that then why would you bother to seek treatment time and again? No, instead I see a person who has rejected that idea and who has in the face of seeming defeat stood up and said, ‘No! I will not accept YOU! YOU have not, and WILL not win! YOU will not make me give in to YOU Defeat!’
    AA, you’re a true inspiration… I applaud you for your courage and thank you for your example. Stay strong! Onward to SVR12!

    Thanks Fara,Ariel ,Coral and Matt ,I’m a stubborn bastard and vowed to beat this when I was first diagnosed in 96 and have kept a healthy life style ever since in the hope something like this treatment would come along and Matt if fate deals me another hand that isn’t favourable I’ll play another hand and and beat it !! I wont give in :) but I’m feeling really good now the discomfort is subsiding,no fatigue at all quite the opposite actually ,I feel bloody great and I’m focused on the future and moving forward with plans for the future.
    Thanks again for thee support and kind words I just hope everyone that enters this battle has a win and rids their body of it forever
