Hi Matt,

Congrats on finishing the 48 week Incivek triple. Give yourself a pat on the back, and recover quickly.

Best of luck for the VL tests to come. Onward to SVR. Cheers.

Hey Matt, exceptional effort and awesome you have almost reached the end.

The day you realise you are free from the burden of pills and can actually look forward to feeling better...surreal. I am under 4 mths post vic triple and feeling pretty damn good! 

You have endured a lot so take it easy and allow the healing to begin!

Nice job Matt!!!!!!!

I can tell you your going to start feeling better the day after your last pill. It took me about 6 months to get back to feeling "right".  I'm a year past eot same tx as you and I feel good. I figure every thing that bothers me now I can blame on my age. I think your the last 48 weeker here. Great job !!!! Now on to recovery. 

Congratz.

Hi Matt,

Just thinking that you are pretty amazing, and probably a pretty big inspiration to all those whose only access to treatment is the long, hard way. Have to add Jill and Tig and so many others who got themselves well on that route too. I got the easy train and still whined!! (So embarrassing but true) You have a lot to be proud of, and it sounds like, a lot to live for. Make sure you come back and share your victory lap! 

Hugs,

Rudi

Hi Matt,

Great day mate!!! So happy to hear you've reached the end of treatment. 48 weeks of hell and you're still able to speak sentences!!! WOOT! I remember the last injection, the last hand full of pills and if I could've jumped, I would've. Just know that recovery after a year of that stuff takes time, but you'll do it and will notice improvement soon enough. It took me a full year, so don't expect it to happen overnight. The strangest thing to get used to, was not having to stay on that strict regimen of pills and injections. That alone was enough to throw a party!

Good luck and please keep us in mind when you get your EOT/SVR results. We'll be waiting for our invitation to the party!! Well done buddy.....
