    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.

    Hey Mikey! He likes it!!! Sorry, that’s from an old tv commercial here in the US… I couldn’t resist :evil:
    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. :lol:

    I’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 then

    Thanks to the generics.
    Life savers :)
