    I had few headaches and I had some fatigue, but for the most part the 12 week treatment went smoothly. I just had my 3 month follow-up labs and everything went well. I am cured from Hep C. I hope the cost comes down so everyone with this life threatening liver disease can be cured.

The first 2 weeks was hard. Nausea, liver pain, no sleep, anxiety to name a few. By D 15 all these sides turned into severe fatigue and brain fog.
