I will continue to pray for your healing.  My husband will be taking the Sovaldi and Ribivarin, he also 1b with stage 4 cirrhosis.  My concerns are that his platelets are in the 70's.  and i work full time should i take some time off from work to be by his side?  also is this the same treatment you are taking?  I know that there is another drug called Olysio.

I just finished 12 week treatment and not only is my Hep C undetectable, my Rheumatoid factor went from high to normal after 30 years! Also I don't feel fibromyalgia pain anymore. Amazing treatment! I am so grateful. Good luck to you all! Amye
