Before DAA treatment, I suffered from muscle pain after very little physical excercise .
At about week 20 into treatment, these muscle pains got a lot worse.
After finishing my 24 week treatment, these aches & pains were still making my life hell.
I thought they had something to do with the DAA’s .
But at around 4 weeks post treatment, these muscle aches & pains, started to get less.
At 6 weeks post treatment , all these aches & pains have gone. I play 2 to 3 rounds of golf per week.
MAYBE the virus is dead & gone, & my liver is starting to recover.

Truly do appreciate the free flow of information about, before, during and after Hep C tx sdfx on this forum. Being, not yet even 3 weeks into 12 weeks of generic harvoni, it’s very helpful to see that you’re not alone in what you may be experiencing and to get a glimpse of what MAY be ahead.
Thanks to ALL,P.S. Michael, I’m jealous about how much golf you are able to get in now … I feel blessed if I get in 9 holes in a month these days… hope to see better days ahead like yours.

Hep C RNA NOT DETECTED”30 May 2016 at 1:55 pm #18044I’m glad the aches have gone.
It must’ve been the meds.Funny how different the youth are, my son didn’t have any aches at all.
So glad he’s been spared getting older with the virus & having to go through tx then.
Sure he’d get the aches & pains thenThanks to the generics.
