SVR 12 on Sovaldi/Olysio

I found out today that I am officially SVR12.  S/O worked for me.  I am so grateful that this kinder, gentler treatment is available.  I greatly admire those that had to endure interferon/riba protocol in years past.

Congrats on your sought after SVR!  Looks like you've been on this forum a while, so it'll be great now to relax and truly put this out of your mind forever.

Thank you so much for the Congrats and well wishes from each and every one of you.  Pamela I am pulling for you...Thank you for the kind words.
Praying that all of you reach SVR.
If the Sovaldi/Olysio isn't the answer....well then Sovaldi/Ledipasvir will be.  That combo appears to deliver one heck of a punch!  
Love you guys....Maddie

I am absolutely over the moon happy for you....Congratulations! As you well know, you started S/O as I begin the process for approval of the same and I have followed you on your journey. You've been my mentor and hero.

I hope to follow in your footsteps....my SVR will be determined 9/5...but like you said, if it's not my turn at least the future is bright with other options unlike 'back in the day'. Again...congrats!

I wanted to thank you for posting that the drugs coming out in November will still be available to patients who have treated with Solysio and Ovaldi.  Now I have to go check US World and see if my hospital and doctor on the list of the top 10.

So happy for you!  I'm starting this same treatment tomorrow.  I've only seen one relapser, which makes me nervous, but what will be will be.  I'm nervous/excited.  Thanks for posting your good news, and congratulations!!

Just love to hear SVR 12 weeks post EOT, SUPER!!!  Hope we get a lot more of these posts.

I finished E.O.T June 25 GT2 SOV/RBV  Hep NP was only going to do a CBC at 6 weeks and VL at 12 weeks but talked him into a VL at 6 weeks. Heard that most failures occur by the 6th week post E.O.T.  I should have a good idea about my SVR chances mid August when the results will be in.   BMI 36, cirrhotic 67, platelets under 89k prior to tx probably reduce my realistic odds at SVR to about the mid 80's

I am sooooo happy for you! And so glad to hear the good news! Course, all of us on Sovaldi &Olysio are wondering what the final results are and it was so sad to hear of some that relapsed, but my last pill is tomorrow and I just got off the phone with my hepatologist and she said they are expecting about 10% replapsers but she is getting A LOT of SVRs too! SVR12. I'm so so happy for you and I hope we will continue to hear more good news and pat the backs of those who relapsed because my doctor also told me they will get the even better drugs in November, Sovaldi and Olysio do not spoil anyone's chances for those. US World just came out with the 10 best hospitals in the US and mine was one of them and my doctor there runs the liver dept so I think she's really on it. SVR for all!!!! Good for you!
