Hi Saban,
I have just caught up with your negative result which is great to see.
As Mnem said just keep on taking your treatment until the very last pill to make sure that the virus is completely gone.
Like Gaj my platelets were also low while I had the virus. I also had higher iron and high bilirubin. No wonder we all felt so bad. These have all gradually gone back to normal now that the virus is no longer damaging my system.
The ribavirin also gave me headaches, tiredness and pretty bad hair (!!) but it was worth it in the end.
Be kind to yourself. CoralHi Saban and Welcome,
You are definitely not alone on your journey Saban. I was a GT1a and on exactly the same medication as you and I am now cured. This was confirmed by a blood test last week that confirmed that I have well and truly met the SVR24 (sustained virological response for 24 weeks after the end of treatment) benchmark. This treatment combination got the job done for me and it will for you too.
Please ask any questions that you have. We’re keeping you company while you complete this treatment.

Hi Hz from Singapore. Congratulations on your SVR12. Like you I am forever thankful that I found fixhepC. It’s incredible how it has enabled so many people around the world to access life saving and life changing medications.
There is still a long way to go, especially getting medication to people in developing countries but what a template it has created for change.
Hi Kate,
Good to see you are at Week 8 – not long to go now. Hang on a little longer and that fatigue will disappear
Well hello Nads – we missed you!!
You really were fighting some battles and I’m so happy to hear that things are so much better now. Congrats on the SVR 24. Look after that heart – it’s a good one!! x
It’s so good to hear your news Janet. Sometimes it worth doing those few extra weeks to make sure it’s good and gone. Totally agree about Dr F = we adore him.
Hi Edge,
Congratulations – that’s fantastic news.
Our old friend insomnia and why is it always 2am to 4am?!! I had it for years on and off which was probably due to the virus. Then it ramped up quite a lot with the Ribavirin but I have to say that sleeping is much easier for me post treatment. Hoping it will ease for you too soon.Hi SonjaTheGF,
I remember when you first came online and it was great to see what a team you and your BF are.
Congratulations to your BF and well done you.Hi InfinityDreams,

Hi Seedy,
Great to hear you have started treatment. Everything’s crossed for you but really this stuff works. Looking forward to hearing about your results.
Oh Gaj…I’m so happy to hear this news. You have been one of the people who has consistently set the tone of this forum with your respectful and balanced approach to people and information.
Your constant and calm presence helped me, especially as I struggled with my own relapse and for that I thank you. Wishing you only the best my friend.
Such a good news story. Congratulations AK123
Hi Ariel,
Good to see your lovely name. Life goes on with all the joys and sorrows but thankfully without Hep C.
It looks like it will be a sensational night.
Hi Keith,
I’m really pleased to see your results. I also relapsed but, like you, responded quickly to the second round of treatment and I am nearly ready for my 24 week EOT test. It took us a bit longer but the outcome is just as sweet.
