    I began the treatment after knowing had hep c for 5 yrs and my viral load was over 3 million copies. Within 2 weeks my viral load dropped to 17 !!! I feel so much better and getting more energy and far less lethargy. I encourage anyone who may even suspect that they have gotten this to get treatment.

    I have had hep c for 16 years. Never knew I had it until I went to donate blood. I was recommended to a great Dr. who used Harvoni treatment. I did an 8 week treatment and had zero side effects. Went for blood tests two weeks after taking it and was already cleared of virus. Now 6 month later I am still cleared of virus. I am so happy with the treatment and my results.
