Last day of Sovaldi tx

[Janee56]

Anyone else care to celebrate?  My last pill already went down.  Well, two more Ribavirin this evening, but then that's it.

Kudos! We will all be looking forward to your SVR post 12w or 24w?

My prayers and thoughts go out to everyone for their best possible or even miracle HCV resolution.

Thank you so much for your prayers.
As I posted on the Sovaldi/Ribaviran +  anemia thread earlier today, the great news is they did a new HCV RNA test at 7 weeks and he is officially UNDETECTED for Hep C.  First time he has heard that word. It is just amazing. 16 more weeks to go on treatment but this is such a wonderful thing.
Thank you all for your support and wishing you all hear that word very soon!

I am glad to hear that even one day without...you feel better. You guys were scaring me with the sides (i.e., still don't have approval to start treatment). What did your Hgb start at? Just curious.  I hope that everything continues to go well for ya! Jo

This was my 1st day without my Ribv/Solvaldi combo.    Finished the 12 weeks for geno 2.    Gotta say what a difference a day makes.    Know it's still in my system but feel 100% better.     Perhaps it's a mental awareness.    Seems that many are right behind us Janee so will share some thoughts about the final few weeks.    The nausea, and other sides seemed to go away but the fatigue was insane.   Luckily easy to remedy as slept all I could and then was OK.    So.......worth hanging in there and remember eventually treatment will end.    Truly this is a life changing experience and so grateful to be part of it.   Am a patient of Mayo and on Friday have a blood draw.   Have been up and down with the Hmg so that's been a concern.   Think that's what really hit me in those final weeks.    Last check up it was back up to 10.9 so will see what Fri brings as feel as it kinda bottomed out at again the last few weeks.    Think it's a great idea to all stay in touch with results just to see how everyone is doing.    Hang tight everyone and Nan just want you to know that you and your husband are in my prayers and hope it all smooths out for you soon.            ..Kim
