Wow, how funny…food food…
I’m starting on monday…
I’m so curious!!

Nice to read all of your letters…amazing!

Hi Nadia,
I’m on Day 18 of Sof/Dac.
I also have a cold but there are a lot of colds going around at present. My husband has one.
I had a migraine on Saturday which I have I have not had in a while too.
Feeling like i’m on the mend now.
I can feel my liver stinging a bit. My imagination? Doing deep forward bends in yoga, it really felt swollen.
Undeniably there is also a big stress factor taking this on. Not entirely in a negative way, I guess we have to factor this in.
The journey so far has been a bit of a roller coaster for me.
I’m starting to feel a bit more settled now with the routine of it.
I’m trying to take some time to relax, breath and stretch.
all the best

Headache seems to come with the cold bug that’s going around Vicki. My wife and son also have colds, and they both keep complaining about headaches. We had to come home early from a day out yesterday because my son was struggling with this. Like I say to everyone, the results of your first blood tests will make you feel much better.

Hi to Nadia (I’m homesickalien from the hepcuk forum) & all those doing generic Sof/Dac treatments. Fascinating to follow this thread and see what side effects you are all having – I hope to be joining you soon once the Buyers Club has got me my meds.
Good luck!

Hi All, Sorry Nadia if I may be hijacking your thread re Sof/Dac outcomes. I am 58 infected about 38-40 yrs ago and Geno 3a. I started on Sof/Dac on 8th Sept. Had my 4 weeks bloods done and it came back as Viral load below 15 but still detected. I will have another blood done at week 6. I also have the complication of a bone marrow disorder detected 15 yrs ago called Primary Thrombocytosis or abnormally high platelets presently untreated. Was on a nasty drug for 10yrs with that but had to stop as maybe it made my liver react but got very liverish sick. The only other treatment was Peg Interferon. NO THANKS!! Great to see that my platelets dropped by 200 pts which is phenominal, and all other bloods in the normal range. YEAH!
So waiting now on my 6 week bloods now and not sure how we will progress if still detected then.
Another thing is my hepatologist from the liver clinic who was shocked and dismayed when I originally talked to her about the generics, (I went with James then), called me yesterday and is very interested and happy with my progress and wanted to know costs etc for her other clients (I knew she was a good soul) and I pointed her to this website. So great to be on here.

Thank you Nadia. I think the options are extending the time I am on the Sof/Dac +/or adding Riba to the mix. I am very reluctant to go down that Riba road. There is some interestin pan geno drugs in research still. Anyway will just see also what James recommends.
