Hello Matt, good to hear from you again, and well done for getting to the half way point!

Good to hear it`s getting a bit easier for you now as the weeks go by.  I sympathise with the depression but it sounds as though you`re on top of your side effects, and having got this far must have given you a huge boost in moral. 

I`m glad you`re managing to keep a good diet going and I agree that it makes a big difference, as well as keeping well hydrated.  Keep doing what you`re doing and best of luck with the rest of your treatment.

A big pat on the back to you, you`re doing so well!!

Hi Matt,

You go Brother!!! Halfway is a giant milestone, I'm very happy for you and proud of your commitment to killing the beast. You're on a rough road but by now, in old off road speak, you've learned to lock your truck in 4 low and you're cruising over the tough sections! As Gator mentioned from here it's all downhill to the finish. Stay on course, stay committed to finishing treatment and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!! You've got this man and we're pulling for you! Continued good luck my friend...

Good for you Matt. I was on the same tx, half way there is good. You seem to be handling it well. For me week 24 wasn't as memorable as week 12 when I ended the incivek. The rash and depression are old hat by now and you know what to expect. Keep on keepin on. In the end it will be worth it. I hope the next 24 weeks go easy on you. Keep us posted.

hi all hope everyone is tamming this toxic invader.

at 24 weeks and half way through triple x im managing fairly well and most servere sides have settled or im becoming more in control and dealing with it easier.

if anything which i am struggling with at times is a cloud of depression hovers over me round once a week,and the rash and itch. Apart from that i feel very blessed and lucky that it has become much easier.

and right from the start 

lab results are all clear liver function good .i took asvise from you incredible people on this forum with maintaining lots of water and a good diet which i am strict about.

this a believe is the key food food food water water water particulaly on injection day it realy does help the next day .

tanks to all 

take care Matt
