Hi lee, wow you learned fast about becoming infected to treatment, a lot of people carry the disease unaware. Sorry it's a little rough, but the prize is in sight. Have a good week. x

Hi Lee

i can only envy genotype 2 patients, since it's easiest genotype to "cure" and best chance for SVR. Consider yourself a lucky in genotypce "choice" U got 80-90% chance for SVR with peg/riba and with new DAA meds (without Interferon or even Riba) precentage is 97-100%.

all the best and just concetrate on end goal (being clean from hcv)

Welcome. Support and Caring spoken here. Sorry that it's rough, has been for most of us; but you'll get through it. Heck at seven weeks in, you're almost a 1/3rd of the way.

Hi there, I'm Lee. I'm in my seventh week of peginterferon and ribavirin treatment, been a little rough so far. Luckily only have to do it 24 weeks. I got diagnosed with genotype 2 a little over a year ago following an exposure at work.

Hello to everyone smile
