Best to be on safe side

Leave all drugs out during/before treatment

Why risk jeopardising a mega expensive treatment that could cure you.

Wish you full recovery.

Ps Not anti weed,just not worth taking risk it will contraindicate with med. so not work as intended

They will be testing your blood constantly at first,,,they may not start you,,areound here you have to be at least 6 months clean and sober to qualify for treatment,, I took treatment clean for 6 months and the Hep C just came right back in 24 days...I call bullshit

I feel for you , if you can't go straight and want Hep C treatment, you got some deamons to fight , The Hep C treatment works 99% of the time,

The after affect is brilliant just feeling alive and as your meant to be . But for someone who is using drinking smoking I don't know if they would get the same buzz , keep fighting it's worth it .

Not what you're looking for?
