Hi
New here and will tell my story to date.
Was in a trial in 2010 at the very beginning of DAA trials.
Am a GT 1a and did trial of
Daclatasvir/peg/riba. As we have come to learn 8 yrs. later this was sup-optimal and I relapsed.
Unfortunately, ended up with quite a nasty Ns5a linked resistant mutation of H58d/Q30r
I am being tx. By Doc Feld(whom I have seen mentioned here) from CCO articles.
We waited until now for triple(vosevi) because of said resistance profile.
I am treating aggressively for 16 Wks(instead of the 12) and he added Riba from get go.
I am at week 7. VL at wk. 4 was Llod 15 and will test again at Wk 8.
After 41 yrs. infected fortunately still f2, however really want to get rid of this

Just posted this in case anyone else on vosevi or mav and wanted to weigh in.
Will keep updating

Hi Songbird,
I hope you’re doing well on your vosevi and riba! I hate hearing about mutations, it just adds to the hideousness of HepC and for you to find out 8 years later, my heart goes out to you!! I feel for you and I truly hope all goes well this time, so you will finally be cured! Good luck and I hope you have an easy walk through tx with the vosevi and riba!! ~Cheers!!

G1a dx’d in 1992, Biopsy F2 VL 8mill +. Tried tx with Interferon/Riba, back in 2008 didn’t last long it felt horribly ugly!! I stopped tx, after 5 weeks!!
Started tx 6/1/16 with Harvoni.

Hi Songbird,

Wishing you well after such a wait for the right treatment.

I was lucky that my treatment was post the peg era but I did have a lengthy treatment regime due to a relapse. I had the Viekira pak, sof and ribavirin the second time around. The riba gave me a few more side effects but well worth it for the successful outcome.

I look forward to reading your updates.
