Just a ps... If your still tossing, you might want to get Tx doc recco'd antiemetic to help you feel better & also so you don't toss the Harvoni :( "toss the Harvoni" sounds like a good title for a song lol
What you're feeling is NOY very lol, pray you get better really soon

Blessings

Hi there Mr S,

I have gastro issues normally. I'm beginning 11th week of Harvoni & haven't had ANY gastro problems( even able to stop H2 blocker for Tx duration) so, I am definitely(NOT A DOCTOR) inclined to agree with Pat's thoughts above. Sure sounds like a stomach bug, especially the "5 hrs straight part! Check in w/ your doc, maybe he can help w/ something. Sure do hope it goes away as quickly as it came!! Try to stay hydrated
Best,
Randy

I am not on Harvoni, nor have I been, but that does NOT sound like any of the side effects I have read on the Forum by those on Harvoni.

Please remember, I am not a Doctor, or even in the medical profession, BUT that sounds more like a Stomach Flu or a touch of food poisioning.  

i suggest you call you Dr or your 'Ask a Nurse' service, if your Ins offers one, or Even go to the Emergency Room.

Again, I am not on Harvoni, and I am not a Dr, but that is my Non-Medical opinion.

Hope everything clears up.  Good luck and good treating!

Pat
