I have hep C.. started treatment in 2009 did not work for me, ended in 2010. I am a restart and really hope the treatment works this time.
I also have RA with Hep C genotype 1A, and Autoimmune Hep C so I am told. Let me say I am on treatment for the hep c taking three meds. Victrilis, Interferon, and Ribavirin and these meds take you out of the game. Very strong and cannot be on meds for RA at this time. I feel very achey all of the time. I do not have answers on what to do other than take my meds for the next ten months.
Victrelis leaves an awful taste in my mouth food taste bitter and like the medication..
How has your lab work been? Have you had viral load tests yet -- at least the lead-in at 4 weeks?
