Sofosbuvir for Hepatitis C "I have four days left of treatment, which has been for six months. The side effects have been mental for me. Anxiety, depression, insomnia, mood swings, irritability, and rage all come and go randomly. The virus was undetected at four weeks, and this is my first treatment. I won't know until three months post-treatment if the virus will stay gone, but it's gone right now. I am genotype 3A."

Sofosbuvir for Hepatitis C "G2B started Sovaldi with ribavirin this morning. After 1 hour, I had a weird taste in my mouth and an uneasy stomach all day. I took my first dose at 6 am, and by about 1 pm, I felt 98% normal. Then three more ribavirin at 5 pm, now I have an upset stomach and feel irritable. 89 more days, hopefully, the side effects taper off after a few days, like I've read they do. As long as, in the end, I'm virus-free, then this is a small price to pay for prolonging my life and not having to worry about death from liver failure."

For Hepatitis C "I have been on medication for 2 months now, and I'm feeling fatigued, memory fog, brain fog, achy muscles, extreme lower back pain, but not able to get around very well due to muscles aching and cramping, also nausea and irritability, depression. I am willing to stick out the last month so I can make sure that it does what it's supposed to do and cure the hepatitis C."
