Hello Larry,

Welcome to the forum!

Nice job on getting started and being on your way to being HCV-Free!!

Here's a handy link on how to add info to your signature line as others have already suggested. From within that link is another link to Abbreviations uses on the site that may be helpful.  Signature Line Set Up/Abbreviations

Glad to hear that it's smooth sailing with the Harvoni, that's usually the case. Ditto on the water, be sure to drink a lot (3-4 liters per day), it helps ensure a side effect free ride and helps the meds work well. I've found that proper nutrition also helps a great deal so try to avoid the junk food and do everything that you can to help your system fight the virus. You might want to check out our Hep C and Nutrition section, lots of great ideas for eating healthy to help fight the virus.

Make yourself at home, lots of great people here. Also tons of great information, ask any questions you want or join in the discussions, we're glad that you're here.

 

Dave

That's always good news for people who are hesitant to start treatment on Harvoni.  Any more details you can add to your signature line or here?  Anna
