That’s great news GF.
Let me add a “love your work” too. Next stop 24!!!Hi FHCN,
Please don’t apologise for sharing your thoughts and concerns here. It’s great that you feel safe doing it and sometimes just getting those thoughts out of your head and written down can be helpful. You have a lot on your plate and it’s understandable that you’re feeling overwhelmed. When things seem large and complicated sometimes dividing them into manageable bits can give you some leverage and clarity. Try to find some issues that you can control (you have a great example in taking control over HepC) or the parts of each issue that you can control.
There is no doubt that HepC messes with clarity of thought and I know that in recent years I began to find it much more difficult to make decisions. Another good reason to try to break things down into smaller bites. Your treatment is going really well and I believe that as you feel better you’ll be in a much better position to work through things and find solutions. In the meantime don’t be too hard on yourself for feeling anxious.
There is some good practical advice here about potential immigration paths. The temporary visa is definitely worth pursuing.
Sometimes that feeling of paralysis and shortness of breath can be helped by some deep breathing techniques. It won’t solve your problems but it can help to calm things down just a little.
Finally lean on any support that you have in your life – including this site.
Take care FHCN.

They are lovely looking numbers Ariel and everything is looking good for a great SVR24 result.
Pat1 – sending huge positive vibes while you wait for your results. It’s looking good Tina. It will be good to see the SVR24s continue to increase. Good luck
Hi Semisweet,
What great a great result for four weeks in. One of the things I really noticed as the meds started working was the ability to see/think clearly. Your liver will be appreciating the relief already.
Congratulations Simone. That’s such a great milestone. Fingers crossed for more to come
Thanks for that conversation you had Splitdog and Greedfighter. I have an appointment with Dr Freeman next week and you are helping me to be across as much as possible. I have no appetite for waiting too long to treat again but understand I may need to have some patience to get the best outcomes. Thanks guys.
They are great test results Momo. Your body is responding in exactly the right way to the meds. Looking forward to the next results.
Hi Ariel,
That’s a really thorough test and tune up. Great idea. Have a great weekend.
A double whammy of really good news to start the day. Congratulations FHN and JamesF
Undetectable – that’s what you are….
Congratulations Fitz – the best news. Thanks Dr Freeman,
Very heartening – particularly for us harder to treat folk. A couple of sentences for the non-experts like me sound pretty good “unprecedented SVR rates in chronic HCV infection” and “the adverse effect profile of SOF/VEL does not stand out as different from placebo”.
