Hopefully on my way to being cured of Hep C
I started the new treatment (Sofosbubir/Ledipasvir and
Ribavirin
) for Hep C two weeks ago and up to now feeling fine. Had no side affects and I am feeling a lot better. Whether this is because I have told myself I am going to get better I don't know.

Treatment Finished and on the mend!!!!!
I have never had any bad side effects from either the
Ribavirin
or the Interferon. I think I was pretty lucky on that part. It will be a while before I am back to the old me.

Any tips on injecting interferon (Pegasys)?
Any tips and guidance, either about injecting, or about side effects, would be very welcome because most of the information I can find seems to relate to hepatitis (in combination with
ribavirin
) and so I don't know to what extent they apply to me. Thanks, Jo

My 12 week results......
If it doesn't, they will reduce my
Ribavirin
dose. I have been assured that reducing the dose of
Ribavirin
when you have been on triple therapy with Incivek, does not affect the chances of SVR. Whatever I have to do, I will do. Not too much else is happening with me.

My 8 Week Check-Up
That means I will just be taking the
Ribavirin
pills twice a day and the Interferon injection once a week for another 12 weeks. I think I can handle that. If I can go through what I have gone through (the worst, I believe) then I know I can make it through the next few months.

It Has Started!!!!
I am also taking
Ribavirin
pills and they need to be taken with just regular food. My injection of Pegasys is done once a week. I have been told to do this closer to bed time so that if there are any side effects, I can sleep through most of them. There are so many drugs!!!!!
