    My experience has been a lot like Tina’s. I am only now crawling out of the hole that tx left me in and I finished treatment on March 8. Still not “rearing to go”, but I am feeling a lot better than I was.

    Hey guys FWIW I finished tx about 7 weeks ago and still have aches and feelings of inflammation around my liver even though I came up as UND at SVR4. Those symptoms never really went away completely. I have a feeling for those of us with damaged livers, even when we kill the virus our livers are still in rough shape and we are likely to feel some discomfort until it has had a chance to heal.

    We are all different. I felt terrible from about 6 weeks into treatment and only now (7 weeks post tx) am i starting to feel a bit better every day. I came out UND at SVR4 with all kinds of gastric and other problems. Hopefully it is just your liver healing that is giving you grief. We talk a lot about getting rid of the virus, but a lot of us have liver damage that has to be considered as well. I’ve got my fingers crossed for you…

    I had a Canadian lawyer explain to me that if they arrive in the mail/courier and get stopped by customs they won’t be allowed to enter the country. OTOH if you could get them sent to a friend in the states and then go down to the states to pick them up, with a prescription, it is legal to bring in a 3 month supply for your own personal use.
    I am sure a prescription from the people at GP2U would work just fine if a Canadian doctor doesn’t want to write one.

    I guess that’s me standing all by myself in the middle of Mexico. Cool! Except for the fact that there are all kinds of hep c sufferers here and the only treatment available legally is Interferon and Ribavirin. I have been trying to get the word out here about other possibilities but so far nobody is listening….

    Genotype 1a. Lesovir-C never got as popular as Twnvir (the other Bangladeshi generic harvoni) mostly, i think, because it comes in big ass plastic bottles with 7 pills per bottle so you end up travelling with 12 pretty big boxes to cover your whole treatment. Also, i think the people at Incepta (who make twinvir) are more user friendly when it comes to being helpful selling their meds.
    I just happened to have a friend working at an NGO in Bangladesh who was coming home to the states for Xmas and offered to buy me my meds and bring them back with them. I think they chose Beximco Lesovir-C because Beximco is recognized by the FDA and they probably had some connection to the people there.

    SVR 4. Canadian living in Mexico. I did 12 weeks of Lesovir-C made by Beximco labs out of Bangladesh. Happy to be labeled as a Generic Rebel on your list, fretboard. Actually I am a professional guitar player as well, but I guess that is for a different conversation we could have….

    Hmmmmm. I now want to be careful about an email I received some hours ago from a Hieu Pham saying that he is helping Dr. Freeman collect data for the EASL conference. He wants me to send my pre tx and current blood stats to him. I am more than happy to do this if it is for real. Could somebody please confirm if this is a genuine person asking for genuine information?
    Thanks,
    Ken
