The OP hasn't been back on the forum since starting the thread. We discourage the discussion of unproven HCV remedies on the forum.

I too would like you to post a link to what you are using. We have had our share of salesmen trying to exploit people here. If this is the case, I am not interested. I did not respond to tx and I would be interested in a natural remeady but.......... Dee

Labs are nice and easily falsified. Anyone can create a doc that looks like a real lab. Please provide a clinical study conducted by a credible independent entity. Because we've heard about these magical Chinese herbs over and over again.

Hi and welcome to the forum.  Sorry to read that tx did not work for you, especially after two attempts at it.

Some Chinese Medicine is known to alter blood levels, but this is not necessarily indicative of reducing the viral load.  It can be/is a 'sensitive' subject here as we get the occasional snakeoil salesmen trying to exploit people who are unwell.  While i am not putting you in that category, not everyone here will share your enthusiasm for chinese medicine.

Also, it is worth saying for people who are on tx, it is strongly advised against using any herbal remedies whilst on tx, without first consulting your Doctor.  They can give false test results.

Wish you all the best.

Hugs, Heather xxx

I tried Interferon with Ribarvrin twice for a total of 1.5 years.   No change, in fact some things went up.   After the treatment.    I looked into some Chinese Medicine and with some doubt tried it.   My liver enzymes are now normal and no virus in the blood.   Before I had reading 3 times the normal limit for liver enzymes, and 3 mil virus in blood.   I have all of the labs to show anyone seriously interested.
