Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer.

Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.

Dang man I am sorry.
You may be like me IL28b gene is TT and even triple therapy is not such good odds.
I'm waiting for the new NON Interferon treatments that take a whole different approach to the virus. It may be for us!
Again ..sorry man

Ouch... I can't even begin to comprehend what you are going through. Having just finished my first 56 weeks of tx, I can't fathom trying it again, forget twice more. You have cajones, my friend. Sorry for the non-response.
