    For Viekira pak Romanian NHS has achieved a very good price 18,000 euros,

    That is a very good price. Australian Government is paying for people to get treated. Health minister was speaking very proudly of the great deal she got. Just under AUD70,000 which is a bit over USD50,000

    Some people might think this is a good deal. I do not, even though I have been a beneficiary of the situation.

    The mooching will include a couple more locations in Europe, not sure which, but if there is any way I can meet up with any fellow fighters in that neck of the woods and swap stories over a meal, I would definitely be up for that, just saying. August or September next year

    Hi RHF
    You’ve got this! If your ALT is still low you are fine.

    Yay, party time!

    I don’t know how the law works in Romania but hopefully if this outcome sets a precedent, the legal battle for subsequent claimants will be shorter and easier.
    Very happy for this person and anyone who manages to follow in his footsteps

    Thank you mgalbrai
    Going forth and enjoying life is exactly what I plan to do.
    In a bit under a year’s time I’m planning to be swimming and moochiing around the Costa Brava, and checking out some other parts of Europe, yet to be decided.

    Finally got to see the doc last Friday,
    I had my 12 weeks post treatment bloods pulled at the end of August but the wait was due to my having an unexpected work commitment on the date of my original appintment.
    The HepC nurse told me my results by email, but it was good to get a hard copy of everything. She said I could get retested in 6 months or so but she didn’t see the need and neither do I.

    I’ll get my liver functions tested every year as part of a general health check and if anything looks strange I’ll gt it checked.

    I feel like the effects of coming off the treatment have truly gone and that’s pretty cool.
    A couple of observations:

    The doc thought I was pretty healthy prior to starting Tx. That was probably because I generally presented that way, plus she knows I have a fairly active lifestyle. I explained that I really didn’t know that I was unwell until I got well.
    It probably took 2 months to feel normal after EOT. Atter I’d finished it my resting HR went up by about 10 BPM, but now it’s back to normal. That was the most noticeable thing.

    I feel very lucky. Lucky that I managed to hang in until these drugs became available, and lucky that I have come into contact with this awesome, diverse, global tribe. I hope that everyone has the easy time and success with the treatment that I have had.

    Hi again London_R
    Just a quick question or so….
    The doctors you are going to see soon, do you have to pay them?
    Are you fairly sure of how much help they will be to you?
    May I suggest you maybe save your hard-earned (and your precious time) and get your meds from a tried and trusted source and get treated?As I understand it you don’t need a single thing from the doctors you have already seen and have said no to you

    I’m Australian, so I hope you don’t think I am being too direct. Some of us are like that here :cheer:
