I know that Angelo is in excellent medical hands and glad that Harvoni is kicking the virus out the door. Looking forward to good news on the tumor procedure in the near future! Take care and we look forward to your next post.

From everyone's mouth to GOD's ears! Thank you so much for all your prayers!

The insurance just called to let us know that the procedures have been approved.

Will keep you posted.

Hello Mena,

I`m very pleased that Angelo is responding so well to the Harvoni treatment and we`ll look forward to hearing that he is UND soon!

It sounds as though he is continuing to receive excellent medical care and I hope the treatment for the tumours goes well and is successful.

Wishing you both all the best of luck, stay strong and keep in touch!

~ Jill

Hi Mena,

Its good to hear from you again. I'm so glad the Harvoni is doing its job! That is an excellent viral reduction. I'm also glad to hear they have a plan to tackle the tumor problem too. They are doing good things at Mt Sinai and I wish Angelo all the best! Do keep us informed of his progress!

Hello everyone, just wanted to update on what has been going on with my husband Angelo.

I had posted that during an MRI 3 tumors were found on his liver meausuring  5cm, 2.1cm, 1.9cm.  Of the 3, the 1.9cm seems to be a nodule.

The other two will be treated with RADIOEMBOLIZATION at Mt. Sinai Hospital in NYC.

The light at the end of the rainbow is that the Harvoni is doing a great job killing the virus.

At his 4wk. blood work it had gone down from 2, 756,000 to 109

This coming Monday he will get his 8wk blood work which I am positive will show UND!

Compared to the hell he went through during his las treatment, Harvoni is a walk in the park!

We are all praying so hard that the procedure for the tumors will be successful with no complications!

Mena
