It sounds like you need to be in a clincal trial. I checked this web site
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00705432?term=HCV&recr=Open&cntry1=NA%3AUS&state1=NA%3AUS%3ACA&show_locs=Y#locn
and found that there are some study site that are not to far from you. There is one in Miami and another in Sarasota. This is the Boceprevir trial and has had very good results. I would advise trying to get in right away because there are limited space available and there may even be a waiting list.
Here is a link to the Teleprevir trial and they also have studies available in your area.

Hope this helps you!

i too had and sometimes still do have those same pains. im on week 6 of tx. i didnt have insurance either. my dr. gave me a # for 1 of the drug company's that sponcers the meds or something like that. i qualified to get my hep c meds for free. they send them to me by fedex. my dr also has me on some meds that i do have to pay for but she finds the 1's that are on the wal-mart $4 list.
try calling around to hospitals and asking if they have any studies going on for hep c. i did that also. when i called my local hospitals, they didnt have any studies going on at the time for my geotype.
keep ur head up. its going to be ok and we are here for u. ill keep u in my prayers. much love to all

i live in moorehaven ,fla i dont know the Gene type ,orthe viral load,I have an apointment monday with my doc.AND i will ask him what they are.He is a doc at a clinic.He has been realy good to me so far. is, I have a question, does heptc make you hurt all over,hands,nees, arms under my right rib, I am glade to beable to atleast have some on to listin to me ack&pain
When you ask a question like this it is important to provide as much information as you can about your illness, viral load, Geno type and most importantly what city you live in. There are people from all over the world who post on this site so when someone ask for help you need to provide that information so we can help assist you the best way possible. The more information the better. Now if you live in the USA, Canada or Europe you can probably find a clinical trial somewhere, but if you live in Mexico or South America your probably Screw ed. So you see when you ask for help it just depends on what info you provide as to whether we can or not help. It sounds like you need to be in a clinical study. The Meds are free and they actually offer the best source of treatment that give the best results.

Are you near a large city with a good free or reduced cost clinic? You can search on the internet for free clinics near you. Or find a church or some other kind of outreach facility that can help you find the information you need. Good luck to you and your family. Keep searching your area --- don't give up. There is someone near you willing to help I am sure.
