Started treatment Tuesday Feb. 2 I am writing this to describe my experience and the healing process in hopes that it will be helpful to others and I will have a record.
Day 1 – opened the first bottle, filled my 7 day pill case and stared at it for a few minutes. A little bit hesitant as I have shied away from taking any form of medication for many years. Then I took it. It was a gorgeous day, so after getting set up with SIM card and Bus pass, I went for a walk along the Hobart Rivulet. By the time I got to Cascade Gardens I was a little tired, so I took a short nap. Only side noticeable side effect was vivid dreaming and waking up with a start. Otherwise, sleep was normal.
Day 2 – spent today at the Botanical Garden. Lovely and I felt very energized. I noticed some sensitivity in my left eye when I got back to the hotel, but it went away quite quickly. Fortunately, I have some very dark sunglasses that I will wear tomorrow. I feel upbeat and energetic tonight.

HCV UNDETECTEDHi GAJ,
Thanks for the tips. I am taking the UV advice to heart and will break out the very dark glasses tomorrow. I have protective gear with me and will be wearing it.

HCV UNDETECTEDHi Tina,
Thanks for the tip. I did feel some sensitivity in one eye this afternoon but faded quickly. I am using SPF 50+ very liberally. Loving the relaxed atmosphere and fine weather, a very nice break from Hong Kong.

HCV UNDETECTEDHi Gaj,
I was thinking more about not taking any more of the drug than necessary for health reasons. But have decided to go ahead with 12 weeks, belt and suspendser. I start tomorrow. Down the hatch!Cheers

HCV UNDETECTEDHi Lynne,
Glad to hear all is going well and thanks for the info. Looks like Nurofen is trademark for ibuprofen + some other secret ingredients haha. I plan to drink a lot of water and use yoga techniques to control any headache. I am an optimist who prepares just in case. 10 days left, you must be really psyched. It is so odd, I have watched many people start the treament and now many of them are near finished. Now my turn. Good luck with the next `10 days, you can see the finish line…….

HCV UNDETECTEDHi Zhuk,
I hope all is well. Just curious if you are having any headaches and what are you taking for them if anything. Not sure if aspirin, acetominaphen or ibuprofen better. I’m not really planning on needing it but wondering what you and others think. It has always been confusing for me and I have generally avoided for the last 15 years. All the best. Honker

HCV UNDETECTEDThanks. I would like to do that but thought I would see how I tolerate the meds before signing up. I’m optimistic and looks spectacular.

HCV UNDETECTEDThe is fast approaching. I leave for Hobart on Sunday night and will arrive on Monday afternoon in Hobart. First order will be to visit the Buyers Club to pick up my meds. Must say I am excited and nervous.
I would be interested in any tips on whole foods restaurants or shops and juice bars.
