Hello Nick. I live in Idaho in the States. I was treated last year with generic epclusa. I am genotype 3a. If you are genotype 3, take the prescription for a longer period of time, not just the recommended 3 months. Hopefully you are not. I had no insurance and still don’t. Once I ordered I got my medications within 1.5 wks. It was very quick. I finished treatment September 2017. My last viral load was undetected at 4 months. I had it rechecked. and am awaiting the results. Hopefully your insurance will pay for the medication but, if not, the generic medications are the same quality medication as brand name, just doesn’t have the price. We hope to hear how you are doing with this. Good luck!

Yes. I am from Idaho. I was treated last year with generic epclusa for 4 months. I am genotype 3. I would have liked to have done 6 months but ended up getting a bad flu bug. I got excellent service, very personable, knowledgeable and the best people ever. They go the extra mile. Any questions I had were answered promptly. I was very scared and not knowledgeable about hep C, other than I felt horrible. I was undetected 4 months post treatment. The medications are the same compound as the BigPharma just the price is reasonable on generics. I had had hepatitis C since 1988. I couldn’t get treated in the U.S. because I had no insurance and just kept getting the run-around. I was lucky enough to come upon information from FixHepC . I did a lot of research and felt very confident.

The U.S. has terrible insurance, terrible doctors. You have to be your own advocate. I am in U.S. too and I found the diagnosis myself, and was misdiagnosed by 4-5 doctors before I ordered my own tests and said “look here”. Fed up! I saw this site and did the same thing as you. Too good to be true? Yes but it is true!! I am telling everyone. I do not care how many people know I have hep C. I want people to go out and know they have a choice to take generics and not just be out there waiting to get sicker. Glad you got treatment and are doing well on it. I just finished my first month and now for bottle 2. LOL. Sounds like you are going to do great on it. I had the same fears as you about going through customs but after researching all the data and knowing it was legal and coming from a good source, that was reassuring. The best gift!

I will keep sending this. I want at least to get the word out for all baby boomers and those at risk, get tested!

Jorge if you have not heard back from them on your results yet, I would call them and get them. Hope all is well.

Congratulations! I am genotype 3a and have 5 more months to go. Same here. So glad they have this site! At first I thought it was a scam until did a lot of research and found out it was actually true! Seemed too good to be true! I hope to get the word out there. Glad you are doing well.

I am glad you are taking care of yourself. It is nice to have a place to come where people understand the struggles. My husband says maybe you are tired because you don’t do that much. Oh I hold my mouth. I know he doesn’t understand and oh well. So you move on and try to make each day count. I am still working on a diet that feels totally right. I eat a lot of salads with lots of greens and other veggies but something is not right. However, I have to admit, I am addicted to Coca Cola. I would have three a day. So I do have irritable bowel, esophagitis and gastritis and hepatitis. So you think I could have the one vice that I like—The answer is NO! I can’t ,so I stopped it yesterday. Being fatigued is not very fun. I haven’t eaten garbage food (greasy, fried crap) and don’t eat at fast food restaurants (I don’t call it food-it is garbage) and haven’t for years. So maybe things will improve. It can’t hurt.

I have enjoyed reading your threads and it is nice to have someone who can relate. TY
