Hello to everyone, I have been absent for quite some time. I did a Boceprevir Trial back in 2009. That did not work out so well do to the fact that I received a placebo and not the actual drug Boceprevir. I have not received treatment since until today. Today I started the Harvoni treatment and so this is why I am posting this for those of you who want to see how things go. There may be many others who have already posted treatment as I sure there has been. Since Printze posted this I just decided to chime in. I took my first pill today and seem to feel a little light headed but other than that I am okay. We will see how things go and hopefully in 12 weeks I will be SRV. I will be glad to finally get the awful dragon off my back and lead a normal life again. My energy levels have been horrible for a couple of years now and I am hoping through treatment they will be restored back to a decent level that I can work without the major fatigue I feel that keeps me from working full-time. Wish me luck guys!

Day one pretty easy a tinge of a headache but nothing I can't handle I think the anxiety expecting something worse has subdued. now. This should be a fast 8 weeks indeed.So grateful for these drugs.

Side effects are mild to none. Don't worry about it. I also look forward to my daily pill. I set my phone alarm so every pill is taken at 11 AM for me. Good luck and relax. This stuff is easy. :)
