I am so grateful the teatment is working. At week 4, my tests came back negative. Now in week 9.

I will be happy not to have to take these chemicals in 3.5 weeks.

The ribavirin is pretty toxic but I am managing. I am an athlete so it has been the biggest challenge to continue my sport life will on this treatment.

Some days are not good but overall, I am managing. As we all do.

Nice to see little changes, fingernails, hair, face, all looking normal. The drugs do work. It was worth all the difficulties I had to go through to get this treatment.

Have a great day. πŸ’–βœŒπŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ€Έβ€β™€οΈ

Hi, this all sounds very positive, nice to see that you are noticing small improvements, I have found my eyes are less dry but I'm still losing hair, I still have a few weeks to go, though I am on my 7th week so its countdown now.

It's great you have done so well.
