Hey beautiful people❤️ amazing news! So I’m halfway though 8 weeks of treatment on Maviret type 3a. I went to the hospital today to pick up the next 4 weeks of treatment and I got the results of my 2 weeks bloods. My viral load had dropped from over 8 million to 10!😱

I already knew before going the hospital today it was gone! This past week I’ve been imagining the nurse telling me it’s cleared I wasn’t expecting it to be this quick though😀💃🎉

My advice to anyone going threw treatment do what ever you have too to keep your spirts up! A positive attitude is what will see you through.

And if there is any of you waiting to start your treatment on Maviret stop worrying! I have felt far worse off of antibiotics, anti depressants and diabetes medication.Fatigue is all I’ve felt and you already know what that is like.💪

These new drugs are a miracle I’m so unbelievably grateful!! After 16 years of hell I get my life back and can now finally well and truly put the past behind me.

Because for me in 2002 in rehab picking up the pieces of a broken life to get the diagnosis was a real kick in the teeth. For me getting a diagnosis was like receiving a death sentence I drank and partied too the excess for many years. I figured what the hell it was gonna kill me anyway.It was always there hanging over me spoiling any little bit of happiness I found and I never felt clean! I was foolish and I’m so very lucky to come out unscathed .Normal fibro scan 5 point something and no scaring.

For any of you waiting for treatment keep the faith your time will come! Treatment time has really speeded up🌈

I’m feeling so lucky I’ve come the bingo 🤣🤣Although I already feel like I’ve won the Lottery today🙌💃🎈Yes I know my posts are long🤣I always did have far to much to say for myself🙄

A massive thank you to all of you for the support Love and light Cathy

Hi shell,nice to meet you as such,I have had my treatment it was for genotype 3a with a drug called epclusa,and I never had any problems at all with it,that was 7 months ago,Now and although they monitor you for 12 months I believe the virus has gone,how about yourself?

in reply toSillysausage234

That good I was genotype 1 the worst one they say I was giving clear blood tests from week 2 I only finished treatment on the 29.12.17 so not had any more bloods as yet but fingers crossed it has not come back

Yup, get a second go of getting my health back. It's times like this I'm grateful for NHS and the country I live in. I'm so glad I have this site as their isn't alot of info about this drug on internet, it's really spurred me on. Onwards n onwards. This tablet may help me sleep better as I've had trouble for a while. I'm in good position and am not working just now so I can focus on myself. Happy days😊

Aww that’s lovely Shell ❤️ I went so many years with it alone. That now all’s I want to do is help others going through the same.I only found this group myself a couple of months ago.I only wish I’d found this group years ago.I hate to think that so many people are suffering alone and in silence.Hopefully more people find us. Best of luck to you too! Love and light. Xxxx

Mizzkent in reply toCoolninja807

Oh not long left for you then 😊It will Be stay positive you got this! Maviret is amazing worked after 2 weeks I couldn’t believe it 🙌 have you not had any bloods done yet? Not everyone does I was tested through out so was lucky as some people have to wait till the end of treatment 👎 do you know what genome type you are? Xx

Coolninja807 profile image
Coolninja807 in reply toMizzkent

Hi yes i had my labs done 4 weeks into treatment.i should know the results of that test soon.i was told i have geno type 1a. What type did you have?what kind of side effects did you have?

Mizzkent profile image
Mizzkent in reply toCoolninja807

I had type 3a I didn’t really have any side effects just fatigue mostly in the first 2 weeks.Everyone is different I know some people had nausea I was lucky. I actually enjoyed going through treatment as it was quite a spiritual journey for me and I felt like I was healing all areas of my life. The best advice I can give is to stay positive and do things that you enjoy. And make plans for after treatment even book a holiday if you can. Something nice to look forward too😊 best wishes Cathy xxx
