What medical school hepatology center did you do this study? I am new to this forum. I am on the triple therapy invcivek started july 15. Last friday was end of my eight week of treatment and doctor stopped my incivek due to rash. I am still on riba-800mg/day and interferon and procrit. I am really bummed because I know my SVR will now be adversely affected and I could have treatment failure. Und at week 3 genotype1a. When do you think this new drug will be out ? I am taking my treatment now through the Univ of Rochester in rochester,ny. at their hepatology center. Dr. Maliakkal is my hepatologist. My stage is 2. My viral load was 11.8mil when started. I feell so discouraged. Fran b
This is wonderful news for all of you!
Thank you so much for sharing. This news is encouraging to those who could not use INF
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Congratulations!! So happy for you..I know the feeling..
BTB, the side effects were modest - mostly occasional fatigue, a spaced out feeling for a few hours after taking the meds in the morning, and the need to eat large lunches to stave off queasiness. I kept a pretty detailed journal describing my physical and emotional experiences on the treatment, especially in the early weeks. It's intended to be helpful to anyone doing this brilliant treatment in the future.
Great news!
Did you have any side effects of treatment? Do you have any words of wisdom for those who might do treatment in GS 7977/GS5885 study going forward?
