I am stage 4 a-b Geno 1A il28b TC 18.4kPa Female . I was going to order the sofosbuvir from India through Greg and – & the Daclatasvir from Mesochem. I am comfortable with the Sofosbuvir but still remain cautious of the Mesochem (simply because I don’t know anything about them & haven’t spoken with them)) – I would prefer it was tested. I have been hoping for compassionate access here in Oz (on the basis that I can get Sofosbuvir access) but I it seems that just as Mesochem have restricted provision to manufacturers and researchers – Oz may not allow generic Gilead products used with patients in their facilities or provide them with scripts.
So I am finding myself back purchasing generic Sofosbuvir from India but with no second DAA arm of treatment. Nor do I know how to get a script for the Sofosbuvir. My only hope if it were available might be Viekira Pak – about which I am apprehensive because of the advanced state of my condition. I am told that at my stage it may be more risky. Obviously I would prefer a gentler drug like Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir.
I have been cirrhotic since anywhere between 2007-2009 and am tx naïve because I decompensated (ascites) after emerging from a non-related coma and am since not able to use peg-interferon. I also have varices.
Sleepless – I need to decide a way through. Firstly I need a script …I would love to actually speak with Dr Freeman …does he really exist ? I need a script for Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir but haven’t yet decided in what form I anticipate purchasing it – Im not sure how even a script can be written. I don’t think active ingredients will suffice for a script – I believe I need a brand name as well, of course, as the dosing. I want to decide in the next few days and get the products on their way – or my only back up position, if available, might be trying a compassionate appeal for some non Sofosbuvir tx – like Viekira Pak.. I have edited this post , cut it down a lot because it was too long & unnecesarily wordy, I didn’t explain things well & I was a bit embarrassed by it. But the main points are there. Any Advice – is welcome. Archer
