I awoke this morning at 6:30AM with a very bad headache(at least for me, I've never been one to have headaches) Took a oxycodone and it started to ease. Eat a bowl of cereal and thought I was going to throw it up but keep it down. It's now about 4:00 and feel much better just hope this isn't going to be a every morning thing. Thanks for letting me share!
Well started the Harvoni yesterday?

I'm sorry to hear about your experience this a.m.!what time did you decide to take your dose? I took my 1st pill on 4/11/15 & apart from feeling extreme exhaustion the 1st day I've really had no significant side effects. I do drink water (a lot) & I try to take it with food when i remember to. I take it @ 8a.m.
Day 56 on Harvoni. Take it every morning at 8am. Have had minor headaches but consume around 100ozs of water per day and I think this helps alleviate them. Been on treatment 3 other times in the past and drinking lots of water has been ingrained into my thinking. Have been told its the most important thing we can do. Suffer from insomnia but some of that has to do with being up all night using the restroom. Everybody reacts differently to medication. Hang in there. Enjoy the vision of being HCV free. Please keep us posted on how things are going.

I took it at about 10AM. I'm a late night person so I sleep late a lot. But last night got tried around 11:00 so I was in bed about 11:30. I have Roku so didn't go to sleep right away. Been trying to drink a lot of water but with the headache this morning I could hardly keep it down. Am drinking it now though and no problem.
Take care and May God Bless
On the 24th I had my #2week labwork done & my liver functions have fallen from very elevated to within the normal range.it really amazed me. I was so happy I cried!!! I was skeptical about the efficacy of the med due to not feeling any significant effects good or bad,however, the results from my Lab's assured me that any skepticism was ridiculous. I'm so optimistic for everyone on this seemingly miraculous regimen. Wishing you the very best!!!
