Gaj, I’ve been off line for a bit..recently logged in…and was really surprised, albeit very saddened to read the wretched Detected word is back for you & Splitdog…

As you can see I’m also G3. I’m almost too scared to have follow up bloods done..I’ve read a little bit and can see G3 is a tough one to shift…I’m wondering if all G3s fail Sof/Dac treatment..

I’m really sorry if I’m sounding self indulgent or sound in any way insensitive or selfish regarding your confirmed status…

Now I come to think about it, it sounds dumb to even have worried in the first place…I guess that’s the point of forums….a way to get out of your own head/thoughts with people in the same boat.. Thanks Gaj

Hi Serb

Really interesting points you’ve raise. Given me food for thought.

I can’t quite recall where or what I’ve previously read but I have come across Viktor Frankl somewhere before…thanks for reminding me of him..now I’m on a hunt to source

Hi Serb

I too felt anxious when I first started treatment but for different reasons. I was concerned I had purchased sugar pills or worse POISON !! (I can confirm – I’m still kicking plus at the 4 week point I was undetected , just my imagination working over time my desire to rid myself of HCV is very high so I can’t Say I can relate to you with this. However, I do recall an interesting bit of info Dr Freeman posted on this subject. I just tried to source it for you, but couldn’t find it. For memory it was in response to a similar post to you that Arial put up (sorry Arial if I’m mixed up and it wasn’t you)

Dr Freeman touched on Stockholm Syndrome . To give some insight into why you are feeling like you r , Basically it is a syndrome by which the captive person or victim comes to sympathise & at times fall in love with the captor (in this case HCV)…sounds odd, I know, but it’s a recognised syndrome.

Try googling or looking back through to find Dr Freemans post..I’m sure both will explain a lot more eloquently.

Wishing you all the best

If you were GT1 I would say don’t worry. With GT3 a few extra weeks are not a bad idea for many people, but you are really at what should be the “very easy” end of the spectrum.

I’d expect you to SVR with 12 weeks but if you’re tortured with worry and can arrange it adding 4 weeks would not hurt and adds a little insurance.

Dr James,
Thanks for clarifying the above..

If an additional 4 weeks adds a little insurance for success…I’m there!!!

So enough results are in, and out of embargo so now I can say what I was dying to say at the time, well actually…..

Generic Sofosbuvir + Ledipasvir delivers damn good SVR rates and we repeated a trial Professor Gane did (26/26) with Sof+Led+Riba in GT3 and got 13/13 = 100% SVR – please don’t get excited this was in treatment naive low fibrosis GT3 only and the +Riba was essential.

Hi Dr Freeman

I’m currently on Sof/Dac 12 wk tx…about 7 weeks in. I’m in the process of making the decision to extend a further 4 wks..should I be
Adding RIBA to the mix?

Thanks for the link Greedfighter..Dr James sure is an amazing dude (understatement)…

I feel he has done so much for us all (as has Greg Jefferys) and the many more who follow in our footsteps…

I feel I should have donated & contribute to his & Gregs trip to the EASL….
