I crossed the Finish Line
I did it, I am done. I crossed the finish line at 10 pm last night when I took my last pill.Woke up this a.m. and realized I did not have to get food into my body!! What a relief.
I thank you all for your support. This forum has been a God Send of information and friendship.
I did triple Vic, Riba, Interferon. GT 1a, cc, 2/2. First time tx
No helper drugs but reduced Riba at week 19 from 1000 to 800.
HGB stayed about 9.2 all of tx.
The worse side effect? Itching. Scalp, body. LIke little itchy crawly things all over me. Used all lotions, creams, antihistamines.
Best Side effect? Becoming UND and Llama Lashes, I love them!! (doc says they will go in a few months :( )

Woo hoo!! What great news! It must feel strange (and wonderful) not having to take pills all day long. Now on to SVR!!
Congratulations on reaching the finish line! Be sure to check back in with your SVR news when that arrives, and send those good-health vibes back here for those who are still in tx.
Yeah Mo!!! As you know, so glad to hear yet another warrior crosses the finish line. Well done my friend. The reality will begin to sink in as you realize each day no more meds and begin to feel just a little better. Hope to hear a SVR in 3 months.
Comgratulations! Here's to you....and here's to you feeling better!
Cheers!
Cheers!
