Sounds like you are one of the lucky ones. To some extent I was too. I finished Incivek back in February. The final three weeks were a little tougher than the first nine, but I made it. And the recovery started right away, making the next twelve weeks a lot easier. I had to do an additional twelve weeks of riba and Pegasys, and at about week thirty-two I almost gave up. But the folks here settled me down. I hope you continue to get along so well, and before you know it you'll sleeping later, not worrying about 20g. of fat, not dreading a trip to the bathroom, etc. good luck to you. Alan

That is great news. The rectal discomfort should go away soon after you finish incivek, and you also won't have to eat the fat past 12 weeks either. I have had a lot of ups and down during tx, but in general things got a lot better after I finished the incivek.

Knock on wood. After my 2nd shot Weds. night I really have nothing to complain about.smile I hope as time goes by it will be just be a simple matter of keeping up with small stuff like the rectal discomfort and keeping moisureized,hydrated..

I will say "its tough to eat the fat"hmm
