LG,
You’ve had a long haul but staying und to this point is truly exciting. It inspires hope for the rest of us looking ahead to the same results. Thanks for posting. Sorry to hear about your other ailments. So, you’re saying your “old self” was tired, grumpy and prone to nightmares??? Welcome to my world!
Hang in there LG.

Hi lovely lady
I’m so happy for your continued UND it’s great how hard you have worked at this and hung in there for much longer than originally expected and managed less than ideal conditions at times in care locally especially path and so on plus the exorbitant costs of labs in the UK. I’m sure you have inspired a lot of people who are looking for their cure to go for it. Commitment even when you were crook early on and trail blazing generics in the UK with your blog and lobbying that you do so quietly and for all others benefit.
You so deserve a great EOT and to get your SVR LG

Hi all,
OK, So most bloods are in range and Alt is good (13).
Neuts are a bit low, but not ‘concerning’

I have stopped my VitB12 since starting the Sunprevir, does anyone know if I can take that with Sofo/Dac /Sunprev?
I only have 3 days meds left.

LG

Hi LG

Congrats on the UND

Being new on the forum I quickly saw you are a little Dynamo.

They say that what does not kill you will make you stronger.

So you may want to think about a new moniker name. May I suggest SG (Super Girl)

Thanks for your boundless energy and inspiration.

Thank-you Cheese (cool moniker yourself, what would we do without you!)

Not sure about the SG tag ! I have received such kindness from the people connected to this forum and will never forget this, It’s has inspired me and others on here to try to help those in the same boat in small ways. I have always got frustrated about injustice and believe HepC patients have been conveniently discriminated against, especially in England where they want to keep us stigmatised to save money , don’t seem to have the ‘will’ to change things and where patient care for those with this condition is appalingly bad. Things are slowly improving thanks to all involved in the good fight, but we must care for each other in all corners of the world, very few others will..

I see you are a fellow 1a, wishing you all the very best for your treatment mate, keep us posted and ride on (see your bike pic)

ps 2 tomorrow is last day of tx !

Hey LG,
Don’t know if ‘occupied’ is the word for it today (Sunday)
7am ocean swim

remainder of morning coffee n chill with mates
slept ALL afternoon in preparation for Wimbledon men’s final zzzzzzzzzz

But seriously – doing great post EOT thanks for asking. So happy to have cleared this nasty POS thing

Not too stressed about SVR because I know there are tolerable plan Bs if I do relapse.

Counting down to week of ocean swimming and humpback whale encounters in Tonga next month

7 am ocean swim

I am not the jealous type, but with this I’m turning a paler shade of green!
Summer hasn’t started here … Rain, wind, grey skies rool, worst in years.Something’s gotta change.
I am looking for air tickets this afternoon! Swimming in a warm sea is just so healing.

Good to read your positive take on it, thanks Beaches
After ” waking and taking ” for over 6 months, it is a little daunting.
