Finally clear and just a bit of positivity.

Hi, last year I posted on here a few times. Worrying about many things like working, my appetite and general horribleness of Hep C. I was diagnosed with type 2 and was put on a course of Sovaldi and Ribiviron. I think it was a faidly new drug and was warned that it could make me feel down whilst taking it.

I'm just writing this because yesterday I was told that I am now Hep C. I've read posts on here by other members saying that they were clear and couldn't wait for this day to come. I'm emotionally in bits, but finally, in a good way.

This forum has helped me I don't know how many times, so for those I've spoken to, thank you. For those who are still waiting for the best news in the world, hold on.

I wrote a little something (not that little really) for my friends yesterday so I'll post it on here too, if you can bare to read anymore.

"Don't usually post on here but today is different.

As some of you already know, last year I was diagnosed with a liver disease. Obviously it wasn't fun at all, it affected my entire body and mind to the point where I was completely useless, everyday.

I recently finished a 3 month course of treatment, but rather than feeling relieved, coming off the medication left me feeling so empty.

Last night I was driving home a day the dashboard decided to quit on me. I thought that me and my car were one, still working but dead inside.

Today, that changed. I was told that my liver is no longer broken, I am no longer broken. I cried so much, I've had to redo my makeup twice before work.

Even though it's been a real crappy year, it's made me more reflective on alot of things and surprisingly more positive. It's made me a little bit selfish, sometimes not a bad thing. I've realised just how powerless we can be, life is so very precious and could end at any time so enjoy it.

It's also made me so much more grateful for my family and friends, I probably wouldn't be here without you, I love you.

Today is a good day. 2018 is finally my year ❤ (should probably fix my dashboard though)"

Thank you, it's such an awesome feeling. When I was on treatment I had a chart of all the weeks of treatment. It came with stickers and I could keep track of the weeks. All the stickers adding up over the weeks kept me going somehow.

Keep strong and all the best xx
