Hi Ashley,

Welcome to the forum! I’d like to tell you this section is for instruction on how to start a new thread. If you would, please start a new thread in the New Members section, tell us a little about yourself and any pertinent information. Since you have already started treatment, you could simply start a new thread in the On Treatment section. Decisions, decisions! wink

That said, you shouldn’t have much in the way of problems. Nausea doesnt happen much with these new medications. Most side effects can be avoided simply be insuring a 3-4 liter intake of water, everyday!

Talk to you in the other section. People can respond to your questions and welcome you there!

Good old reminder.  Also, if you are just investigating, be sure to check the date on the post.  The treatments available today are very different than those of just a few years ago, so ask or be sure you are getting info that fits.  If you know about old treatments, you will be surprised how much better and tolerable now.  Check it out.

What has your doctor told you? Your genotype if you know already? Have you ever been treated for Hep C before? Any questions you may have about anything related to Hep C? Etc. etc.
