I'm 3 days post EOT with no hair loss.
Has anyone done Interferon+Ribavirin+Sovaldi and have not had hair loss? This kind of scares me. I'm 3 weeks in.
Hi there! I forgot to mention that my hair came back better than ever, yours will too!
Good luck.

Thanks for your comments and support. Of course this will all be worth it if I am UND in the end. I just didn't expect the after effects of Tx so long after. I am still having the blues, feel out of sync with my coworkers, have no patience. Six more weeks until my 12 week viral load test, am counting the weeks. Feel in suspended animation until then.
I had hair loss with all three of the treatments I went through, none of which cured me.
Feeling blue after treatment is very common. The excitement and fear of the new treatment gives us reason to "carry on". When its over we feel let down with nothing exciting to hold onto. Our main purpose and motivation to beat this beast is now over. We think, now what! Similar to PTSD. Maybe step back from the Hep C world, and try to redirect your energy. All of us, including myself, have placed all our focus on this disease. Guess its time to be "normal" and join the real world. The meds are still hanging around also, so they are making us feel somewhat blah. Sandy, I felt the same way you are feeling after ending meds for about 2 months so understand. Decided to take a few weekend trips, and it really helped. Feel somewhat like the old me again. You will too.
Wish I could give you better hair news but try a news style. Mine was waist length so cut it short. Kinda fun....Hope you start to feel a little more in sync. Know that we are here should you wanna chat. Going for a scan next week so having "scanxiety". Will keep you guys posted. Hugs. Kim
