That's great news Mike! I know you're going to be just fine and we'll be right here all the way. You already know the importance of a good diet, plenty of rest, hydration and staying active, so concentrate on those factors. 

The first few weeks will offer the most noticeable changes, if you have them. Do share how you're feeling and allow us to be part of your journey. We're all excited that you're getting this opportunity and I know you don't take it lightly. It won't be long and you'll be able to say "I had HCV"... Good luck buddy!

Hi Mike, that really is great news, you must be so relieved to have started your treatment journey, at last!

Do you know yet whether you`ll be doing 8 or 12 weeks, or is that yet to be decided? 

All the best of luck.. keep up updated!  smile

 

Ps -  I`ve moved your thread, Mike.. welcome to `On Treatment`!!

Excellent! You are on a great medication and should do fine with it. Remember the basics: make taking Harvoni on time the top priority of your day, stay adequately hydrated, get some exercise, eat reasonably healthy. SVR is in your future. smile

Good deal Mike, so glad to hear that you're now on treatment ... Congrats! smile

I doubt you'll have many if any side effects with just the Harvoni, just the same wishing you the best.

You are officially now in Dragon Slaying mode ... LOL

Good to hear, thanks for keeping us posted!

 

Be Well,

Dave

Hey everyone,

I can't believe they gave me Harvoni pills today enough for 14 days. I took the first pill around 12 noon. No side effects yet, hope none in the future. I know you are all standing in support of me, and I am deeply indebted to your support and love you send me. Thank youbiggrin  I'll be keeping you posted
