I'm not the best at searching, no doubt you might dig up something better written or formatted.

I have friends like you, no damage to their liver yet willing to do treatment when a less difficult one is available.
The orals look like they'll be it, just have to get through the trial process and FDA, etc. Time will tell but the future of hepC tx looks bright.

Interesting read...Who knows, I may even decide to treat if there is a reasonable success rate.

I just wish they didn't center the paragraph text.  Who does that and expects any level of readability?!

Thanks for the article.

I think the author is realistic. Could be sooner but who knows??

Thx.. for posting OH.

The author gives himself lots of room in the last paragraph   "may be within 5 years"

That really is not that far off...just seems like it some days  ....
