And getting rid of all that fat was really a plus.  I agree incivik was not a fun time and as nzkiwilife stated after I stopped was the worse for the rash but once it disappeared (about 5 days) the rash was gone for good.

The half way mark is rreally an achievement and I wish you all the best on your week 12 results!

Congrats on finally finishing the incivek.
It is such a good feeling to know that part of tx is over. You will no doubt feel so much better right away and great that you are at the half way mark already.
Everyone is different but just a heads up to be wary of any potential incivek leaving presents. I never had itch or rash while taking it but 3 days after I finished I got it every day for 5 days. Then nothing.

That's a great feeling taking that last incivek pill.  Good luck on your 12 week test.  It's much better just not having to take Incivek anymore.  Only taking pills twice a day is much better.

Congratulations on finishing the Incivek. Now you are on the home stretch.

I felt better within a day of getting off the Incivek. I could finally get a good nights sleep, LOL. Plus a lot of the side effects got better.
