Also diagnosed with high blood pressure, stage3 CKD, cirrhosis, portal hypertension, ascites... I'm 56 yrs old and thought I wasn't in too bad of shape till all this hit like a Mack truck...
Hi all I have a friend who is in week 11 or 12 of Harvoni who called me tonight in a panic saying he threw up about 45 minutes after taking his dose of Harvoni. He's obviously concerned that he will have emitted the medication from his system. My advice to him was to not worry too much about it as a) quite a bit...

...was actually yesterday, the 8th of August, but I debated as to whether or not it would be significant to mention, since my "one year" labs won't be done for another 3 weeks or so. However, I thought I'd post the rest of my one year Report Card: The good 1. I''ve been virus free, at least as o...
I am a bit freaked this morning, I was getting ready and hurrying too much and how ever stupid and impossible it sounds, I dropped one pill and it fell in the toilet. Even though the pills are worth a small fortune, I was not going to scoop it out. Now I am one pill short. Do I call my doctor or just hope one pill...
I only posted on here a few times usually when I was freaked out. I did read the forums to try and get a better understanding of my treatment and the disease. I was on a 24 weeks treatment regimen with Harvoni, my genotype was 1A, and my Fibroscan score was 14 or 16 (have to check) done last September. I di...

Hi all There seems to be more and more people on the forum starting Eclupsa and I'm am just about coming up to 12 weeks post-treatment so I thought I'd start a thread, as I was very curious before I started as to how others felt post-treatment. One caveat: I was on an 8 week trial of Ecplupsa plus a 3rd drug (V...
My husband started the Daklenza/Sovaldi combo just under 4 weeks ago. He will be going for bloodwork this week. So far, no side effects, just a bit of fatigue and some sleep issues (possibly unrelated). I'm hoping for improvement in LFT. The cirrhosis scares me, so praying that the his liver is on the m...

I met with my doc yesterday and had the 4 week blood work. This second meeting with my gastroenterologist was as strange as the first. LAST time, she was downright rude, rolling her eyes and making an unnecessary comment about the fact that I had brought my husband to this meeting as a second...
Hey y'all, I'm John from Alabama. I recently found out I have genotype 3 hc. I thought I was diabetic and feeling bad for awhile. Buttttttt, it's not diabetes but hc.

Yesterday's blood work showed: ALT 31 (ref <50) AST 26 (ref <30) Platelets 104 (ref =150-400) Although the platelet count is low, it is the best count of the last six that I have had done. The alt/ast are at the lowest since diagnosis. Lower now tha...
Did the harvoni treatment. Was undetected at end of treatment and at 6 month post treatment. Here it is 1 year later and HCV RNA is detected but is <15. Now what! Does this mean ots a failed treatment? Im really freaked out and waiting to hear back from my doc.

The last week I have ditched sugar completely, in any form from processed foods to junk food, soda drinks etc. Sugar is very tough on the liver and skin, I thought I would share the benefits of ditching it! My skin had lots of problems and allergies from spots to redness, and eczema. I am not sure about the...
