    Hi Vororo
    Long time between drinks as the saying goes….. good to hear from you but rotten circumstances for you.
    I’m sad for your news and the usual anxious routine of waiting and tx again.
    You’re so right when you say “sh*t happens”
    Sending kind thoughts for you I wish I had the expertise to answer your query regarding “more accurate advice” but I am just another forum friend who is saying that I am thinking of you going through this time.
    I’m glad that the tx is free that’s one good thing…..
    wishes for a good outcome after all you have been through

    Hi Vororo,

    So sorry to hear your news my friend. I also relapsed although mine was much sooner after my initial treatment than yours. I did 24 weeks the second time and we threw a lot at my Genotype 1a with the Viekira pack, Sof and Ribavirin.

    I do know that there is not a one medication fits all for us relapsers so the advice from the experts is really important. I was very quick to respond during my second round of treatment and 24 weeks could have been an overkill but I just wasn’t prepared to take a chance.

    I’m really pleased to hear that France is covering the cost of treatment for all. Good luck Vororo.

    Hello my old friends! Like Ariel said, long time between drinks! Anyway, thank you all for your support and good wishes. I really appreciate it!

    I am hoping that what remains is not a diverse population from a lifetime infection but a single strain of weak mutants that only just escaped being completely wiped out by the SOF+DAC, and which will soon be finally whacked by a different treatment, like it seemed to play out for Coral.

    Anyway, gotta go and paint my bucket yellow, so I wont looks so bad in comparison (crafty, eh?).

    Cheers,

    Hello Vororo,

    Sorry to hear the virus is back. Have you checked the genotype again? This should be done.

    The rule of thumb for retreatment is longer, stronger, add ribavirin (or a 3rd drug).

    Vosevii would be tour preferred option. Mavyret + Generic Sof is the most potent 3 drug combination and what I would give myself in similar circumstances.

    Happy to chat. You have my email.

    I was in Paris yesterday so you just missed a housecall!

    YMMV

    Hi James,

    Yes, a new genotype test has been ordered. I am guessing still GT3, but its a crazy world. Result expected in 2 to 3 working days.

    Thank you for the good advice. If necessary, I am hoping it might be possible to piggy-back a top generic treatment with the official one (which is very good but not to the tune of 24wks). I really want to kill the monster for good this time.

    But there is a further twist that I am not posting on-line. I have just sent a mail to Dr Debasis about that. Since you kindly offer, I will forward to you as well.

    Hope you enjoyed Paris!
