Welcome Fixhepcnow
First off I love the username you chose. Very appropriate. Speaking for myself the side affects have not been that bad, fatigue and headaches have been the worst of it. I am quite isolated in location and always feel better when in the company of friends, that is probably a given when ill but I never realized how important it was until now. Sharing your good and bad times here is a good start. Wish you all the best with your tx, cheers cheese

How exciting for you!!!

My side effects were minimal,and the doc said that was an indicator that the meds started working right away.

Within DAYS I had heaps more energy, focus and mental sharpness and my sleep quality was deliciously awesome. No more waking up for no reason.

Within weeks I was swimming faster.

My boss noticed my increased energy and loaded me up with more challenges – thanks buddy.

Wishing the same for you. Except the extra work. Unless that’s what you want of course.

Hi guys!

So it’s been a month now since I started a treatment, had some ups and downs but received a surprise email from my doctor that my results showed negative results for hep C in just 4 weeks. It all seams a little bit too good to be true and I can’t believe it. I still need to finish rest of the treatment, but at least it’s a good start !!

Hi FHN,

This is a great news, congratulations!
The rest of the journey seems much easier now .
In my case, the ups and downs occurred in the first 3 weeks (some headaches, a little bit of insomnia), but afterwards it was quite a smooth journey.

So enjoy the rest of the journey and may it be without any sx

Cheers
