@ angeleyes and @Trissa
all the best with he TX I hope and pray it works for both of you .

Trissa01 02/27/2016

Thanks! I hope so, too. It is so much easier than other treatments, I almost forget I'm on it and to take my pill.

It harvoni has not worked for everyone here, all we can do is try, and to hope.

Hello angeleyes, so happy you have started the treatment. An opportunity to be freed from this.
It is probably good you are on it for 24 weeks. I too was on a different treatment but it was 24 weeks instead of the normal 12 weeks.
It feels soo good to be free.

Angeleyes 1 its great that you and Trissa are doing so well on the harvoni I did 24 weeks of Sovaldi/riba the Riba was harsh but not like the old TX
I feel like a new person a lot of aches and pains are going away too
I still dont have my 4 week EOT back I was clear at the end I hope to get them tomorrow ..
I feel ok
so here's praying

Keep going and Don't forget those pills Folks
Good luck
