Post treatment headaches? ??

[beckland]

Hi Everyone, I am about 6 weeks post treatment.  My question is has anyone been off treatment for awhile like me and having headaches?  I've been having more headaches since I've been off of treatment.  And I still have the muscle aches. Thank you

I had joint and nerve pain as well as headaches and other body symptoms post treatment. I had to get help from a Chiropractor and oncology body worker and it's made a huge difference. Insurance paid for it. I feel pretty good now and continue with the physical therapy on a maintenance basis.
I have no other health issues beyond HCV and it's lingering affects.

YES! I finished 3 weeks ago and I have awful headaches, as bad or worse than during treatment.I'm hoping they start subsiding soon! I don't like taking Tylenol daily!

I finished harvoni tx about 16 weeks ago and felt lousy at first but now I feel better than I have in years  keep flooding your system with water and as much walking a you can take   life is good  bob

Hi there, while I did not treat with the same medication, it was for the same purpose.  I had some problems after finishing tx.  It takes time to recover from the drugs.
Pat is right, drinking water is key.  Headaches can be a sign of dehydration.

Hiya Beck
I have been EOT since Apr and I still have some residual pain in hip/groin area and am going to see a rheumatologist for my pain. However I am feeling better all the time in the way of energy and clear headedness.  It's actually quite amazing to me just how good I am feeling these days.......hang in there it gets sooooo much better!
Peace and great Karma

I've been EOT for 4 days and I don't feel good at all. It's like withdrawals or something. I thought I would feel good. No headaches but lots of other aches.

I have been off Harvoni and Ribavirin for 3 weeks today feel fine

Thank you Pat. I haven't been drinking as much water as i was before...

Are you drinking sufficient water?  It takes time for the meds to clear your system, so the increased need for hydration goes on, and, dehydration can, most certainly, cause headaches.

Might not be this, but, it is one of the reasons, for headaches.

Hopefully someone else, who has treated with Harvoni and has finished will respond soon.

Good luck and Blessings,

Pat
