Thanks for this very informative article Hazel, hopefully many people with the disease will learn about FixHepC’s service because of it, and know that there are options other than having to wait forever for a decision by a bureaucrat on whether their lives should be saved or not.

Congratulations Jessica, the waiting is hard, but really it will seem like nothing soon. You are underway, that is good news.

That is the great thing about here, FixhepC, doesn’t matter if we need it in NZ, US, or pretty much anywhere in the world, they can, probably have, get it to people.

I can imagine how you are going to feel in the new year, when you receive your meds. Look forward to hearing about it.

Welcome to the forum Jessica You made an excellent decision by taking matters in to your own hands and accessing the generic treatment from overseas. As long as the generics are of high quality (you’re assured of that with FixHepC), you have the same 95% chance of reaching cure. Please update us on your progress once you receive the medications, best of luck

Great job as always Hazel The videos production is high quality, and they drive the point across very nicely. I like the backpack metaphor, very accurate.
