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.
I was wondering why so many people talk about the off labels of meds? I hear a lot about Sovaldi and Olysio. I think my dr will be prescribing me with Sovaldi and Riba in a couple of months. Also, does the off label work the same? any info would be great! Thanks in Advance!

i was planning on sovaldi and ribbi. I too have searched the net until i'm friggin blue in the face on this combo. Still waiting on ins approval i think it's been too long i have very good ins. calling him today and going over this again with them. i had someone call from the university and wants to follow my progress during tx. I really want too see some numbers on this combo it's been bugging the crap out of me. i was fine with sovaldi and ribbs that seems to be the hot ticket. peace.

Well called bones today apparently he realized that he made a mistake and changed script 10 min after I left appt. changed it to sovaldi and ribbi. Actually talked to nurse told her it would be nice if someone informed me. Oh well it will all work out. Peace

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
