Hepatitis C Support Group
Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is spread by blood-to-blood contact with an infected person's blood. Many people with HCV infection have no symptoms and are unaware of the need to seek treatment. Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.
Not like the old IFN/Riba days where I needed a progress sheet to get the next pills down, next shot it!
Best of luck though. It's an awesome treatment to be able to get on!
I was initiated on triple therapy with Incivek, Pegasys and ribavirin by our clinic on June 27,
2012. Unfortunately, he did not tolerate treatment well and self-discontinued all medications on 7/7/2012.
He experienced significant fatigue including daytime somnolence, which he reports resulted in a car
accident. He also developed anal burning, reddened/macular rash to elbow, left arm pain and chest pain
(which he was recommended to seek ER treatment although he didn't as this resolved after
discontinuation of medications). All symptoms improved after stopping treatment, and it was felt he would
do better with non-interferon regimens in the future.Hope this will help someone
