So far so good,really can't complain,I have other health issues, got some sleep woke up feeling better.slight headache.First thing I'd say when I feel like that is its the meds,but I honestly don't really think it is,taking it one day at a time,don't hesitate on my say so but if you're starting Hervoni then go for it,it's killing off the hep got to be the best thing since I got it...There's lots of stories out there,pay attention to the good ones,they based on fact. I just need to work out a regime for myself so I balance my rest and sleep,think that's key to feeling o.k. To me it feels like a strong antibiotic.you will be fine,the day you start it's the beginning of the end for the hep.There is a glow and it's reachable,stay in touch we can share how it's going.hope your reassured,go for it!

I'm sorry to hear that you are not feeling too great, I haven't been treated with Harvoni so I don't know the side effects. I'm hoping someone will come along that knows about them and can give you some advice how to manage side effects. Lots of fluid intake sounds like a good idea, but maybe also ring the clinic to see if they can help, maybe get some sleeping tablets for the time being? I know you probably don't want to take anything else, bit I did read of some that this has helped. All the best to you, I hope you are feeling a bit better today. Hang in there, it will all be worth it in the end 🙏💪😎🍀🍀🍀

Oh and I did get really anxious and restless from the Ribavirin, but it it passed after a couple of weeks, so fingers crossed. First few weeks were much worse until meds build up in body and then it all just balanced out a bit for me, but I had exviera, vikierax and riba, so different side effects. Let us know how you get on 🍀🍀🍀

Thanks,more going on elsewhere than with my treatment, I got to suck it up a bit,been told to make my health my only priority wich is a bit selfish,more on impossible at times.

It might be selfish, but maybe that's what you need to do right now. I could never make anything re. myself a priority, but this treatment thaught me how you sometimes have to do that. Good luck at the clinic and I hope you can get some sleep, all the best 🙏💪🍀🍀🍀
