Hi Kaju,
I agree with you that on balance it is better to start your treatment as soon as possible and in all likelihood you will be feeling much better by the time you take your trip. People travel with necessary medication all of the time and as Mar posted the regulations allow you to take your medication into the Netherlands. An interested border officer may check the ingredients to make sure there is nothing prohibited if it is not familiar to them but a prescription (and your explanation if necessary) will satisfy them.
24 March 2018 at 9:51 am #27660Finally I received my meds
I think I will start next week.
I want to give quick information . Maybe this can help people.
Before order the my meds, unfortunatelly I learned my country doesnt allow me bring medicine from abroad personelly or without authorized pharmacy .Also meds should be in approved drug list. I mean , I can order Harvoni but not generic ones. ( like hepcinat lp)
So I used post office delivery. No privates company like dhl,ups or anyones. Because in my country post office customs rules more easy and stuff are not official like real custom officers. When they receive the meds they waiting 5 days for to receive prescription from me if I dont provide, they send it to official customs warehouse and you dont have chance to take it if they send it to there. I just wanted to share this if your country customs are hard for meds and maybe this information can help you.
Cheers.24 March 2018 at 6:00 pm #27662That’s useful information Kaju, thanks. I think you made a very good decision by starting treatment as soon as you could, your liver will thank you for it. Best of luck to you.

7 days after first pill and still no side effects. I realized I started to have more dreams than before treatment in my sleep. Some of them is stressfully and and some of them is normal. Maybe it s psychological because ı am exticing in these days as you know.
Tomarrow I will get my first test after treatment and we will see whats happening. I know it s to early but hope there will be some reducing for alt and ast .
Doctor told me I am kind of formidable patient , because I ask many questions and making much searchs. Hope I can be more relax .

I am sure you will be reassured by the fall in ALT…

4 April 2018 at 6:23 am #27751Hi Kaju,
I’m really pleased that you are not having any side affects so far. I love it that you are a formidable patient. Keep on asking those questions! People on this forum become quasi liver specialists and get to know their own pretty intimately.
Good luck with those first results…
