That's awesome. It's been in your body to darn long and finally time to set it free. Am sooooo very happy for you. I hope the S/O gang are feeling relief. Guess you DON'T always need the Ribavirin to be cured? To cool to be finding out that the Olysio is also a game changer. Lets hope the big med insurance cos. are paying attention and approving this combo for special geno situations. Time for you Grammy to enjoy your new life!!! Kim
That's such good news for you - and for all of us who follow you with this treatment. Finally something that works for you without knocking you out for a year! Wish all the best to you in your new state of good health!

When you come back done to earth there is a note from me! I'M SO CHUFFED FOR YOU!! congratulations you sure deserve it Love Jules x
Congratulations!!! I'm happy for you. You must be on top of the world right now. Have a great hep C free life.
What wonderful news! Congrats to you and thanks for sharing. For us who are waiting for treatment or those who are treating now this is uplifting and gives us hope that one day soon we will all be cured.
I am soooooooooooooooooo pleased for you. I am hoping, hoping that in about 6 mos +/- I will feel what you are feeling now. A great day in your life for sure.
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing the news. I treated for 1a on Olysio and Sovaldi for 12 weeks and was undetectable at 4 weeks post tx.
In 6 weeks I have my 12 week post tx test It is great to know the tx worked for you. Wishing you good health.

I am so happy for you!! I just found out today I'm starting on Sovaldi/Olysio (sofosbuvir/simeprevir) in a couple of weeks. I was discouraged because Ledipasvir is supposed to get FDA approval this October and has a 93-100% cure rate. You've given me hope this will work for me. I can't imagine your joy! So glad you share it with us!!
So, so happy for you!!!!! You must be walking on air... I'm just on my 9th week with S&O...let's all SVR!
It looks like you're doing the same treatment I'm going to be doing, Sovaldi and Olysio? Are you having any side effects? How are you feeling?
I've failed three treatment attempts: 1) interferon only, never cleared; 2) Peg and Riba, never cleared; 3) Infergen and Riba, developed retinal hemorrhaging at week 9 and had to stop.
I had really bad itching with treatment #2, nausea, hair falling out, etc. I think most of my sides were from the Peg or Riba, but upon research it looks like those side effects could still come up in this oral-only regime? I'm just trying to get prepared.
Good luck and I hope you SVR!! I'll be watching!

Congrats. I'm also 2 wks. post tx. I contracted the virus 45 yrs. ago, diagnosed 12 or so years ago. Never had tx before. Qualified for Medicare last yr., changed docs, got referred to an awesome liver specialist, and everything just fell into place (after yrs. of trying to get help). Medicare D covered the whole tx. Waiting to see if my liver can begin to repair itself. Good luck to everyone else for a full recovery and long life!
