Hi congratulations on finishing tx We from England to and i know what you mean the docs are very ivasive for some reason!. Hope you start to feel better soon i know we were told that the riba can take up to 6mth to get out of your system so take it easy & look after yourself. Wishing you all the best Jules

Hi congratulations for finishing tx.  that is a big accomplishment.  You will slowly over time start to feel better.
Did you have a biopsy? That would tell you how your liver is doing.  If I were you I would go to the doctor in charge, ask them.
Good luck
