Hi D,
The first contact with Rachel was a quote from her on the APIs I had requested from Mesochem on Alibaba. I responded and said I wanted them. She responded and said what was the purpose of the order. My reply was that I was conducting research on the quality of generic HCV treatments in order to make treatment more affordable for the financially challenged. Her next query was what organization I was working with or for. I told her I was a reasearcher with the local university and she could ship it to my office there. She said “university on the address, no problem”. So I wired the money, had it addressed to me, with CRM after my name in caps (looked good to me….), under my name, I put so & so university, my address and my cell number.
Thats it. Greg said mention research and I spun a little more involved tale than I outlined above, mentioning some associate professors in an eastern European country and so on. Well, I sent the money, she shipped FedEx that afternoon and it was here 4 days later-3 weeks ago today.
Thats how I did it

Yes. I felt she REALLY wanted to get me the meds and was trying to help me help her make it happen. As far as being creative, the “CRM” after my name was my graduate school major-commercial recreation management….and as far as my address, no law against me starting my own home-based business, so & so university research group, and being such a poor manager that it goes belly up the first week! No harm-no foul! Everyone got what they wanted. Me, Mesochem, my insurance company (denied me 3 different times) and my liver.
I think I could be even MORE creative, if need be. I want to be well. I thought long and hard before making all these posts-didn’t want to make it known how I did it for fear of the “wrong” people reading it. But, Greg has said we need to, even if it works for only one other person. After thinking about it, I feel he is absolutely right.
Whatever it takes to start people getting healthy.
Thats what its all about.
Start the conversation with Rachel and go from there.
Can’t hurt to try.
Good luck!

Much easier to ask for forgiveness later, than for permission first. Especially when you KNOW what the answer will be before you ask. Nobody is going to arrest anybody for doing what I did. Worst case scenario-yours meds are “detained”, you are notified and given so many days to get them “undetained” before they are destroyed. If Customs refused to allow me to have my 90 day, doctor prescribed, insurance denied treatment-I would go ballistic. I’m talking ACLU, NPR, all the networks the whole of Congress and the president would be sick of me. I can see the headlines: “US Customs denies ill US citizen access to affordable cure for potentially fatal chronic disease.”
It would become my mission in life to stop crap like that from happening. If those old slave-holding drunks who founded this country could see the situation today with Gilead………
They didn’t deal well with “unjust stuff”. We shouldn’t either.
All hang together or be hanged separately.

Hi Cruzan

The compapny will supply all but a script and I would ask that a copy of the script goes into the package. I supplied a copy to Rachel but perhaps that’s automatically happening now. Most of what is recommended for documentation (from fixhepc mainpage is included), my advice is to ensure that Rachel or whoever provides you with copies just in case you have to chase your meds at customs. Hopefully not. Em

Hi,
Yes. 400 mg of sofosbuvir will just fit in the large half of a 00 capsule (the part you fill) when it is tamped down. The ledipasvir, 90 mg, only fills up about a quarter of the cap. It is far easier to make one sof and one led using the 00 funnel and take one of each.. The system works very well. The funnel comes with 1000 caps.
Let me know if I can help you further.
Mike
