Yep. I went over each and every one of them with my specialty pharmacy. They have been great. Thanks for caring enough to say though. Much appreciated.smile

The Solvaldi/Olysio combo will have few sx and you should continue to feel better as your liver health improves.

Be careful of sun exposure with Olysio. Everyone's experience seems to vary regarding photo sensitivity, but you could be more susceptible to sunburn so plan accordingly. Make sure to take Olysio with a little food, drink plenty of water and you will be fine.

Good luck and onward to SVR!

Hi Sherry, glad you are feeling better.  This regimen is a piece of cake compared to some.  I noticed on your blog you mentioned different supplements.  Make sure with you doc these are ok.  Hoping and praying you get SVR.

Hi Sherry,

I'm glad to hear that the "unpleasantries" (my word) of treatment have decided to cut you some slack! Unaware of what your specific meds will make you feel like, I do remember what those first few days and weeks of our introduction to treatment in general are about. Let's hope that the improvement continues and the rest of your experiences are good ones! Good luck and keep up the good fight! I enjoyed reading your blog, thanks for sharing some insight into what makes life and treatment work for you.

The first few days were kind of tough adjusting but today I feel so much better. I made a healthy breakfast and lunch. My appetite for healthy foods had been kind of dulled.  Yeah!!!

Here's to SVR and great health and vitality.
