GT1a treating with Sov/RIBA protocol

Would like to compare notes with anyone who's on same tx. I'm starting wk 4 and not liking the emotional roller coaster I seem to be on.  A bit of nausea, body aches.....absolutely more tolerable of this than the interferon protocol first time treating...

I've been on Solvadi/RIBA for 5 weeks now. The first week or so I was sleepy. I am weak and have body aches but nothing I find intolerable. Was weak when I started from an acute cirrhosis incident. Just the last three days I have been extremely thirsty. Drinking about twice as much water as usual.

I started sol/riba 2 weeks ago. I am genotype 3. I really have not had any side effects other than sleeplessness. I do drink a lot of water during the day and that is all I drink. I am on nalodol to slow the heart rate down as I do have mild cirrhosis and I have a script for acid reflex. Make sure you eat when you take that Sol. pill. Hope this helps.
