Sofosbuvir for Hepatitis C "I cannot rate the medicine yet. I am only taking it for 2 weeks, I am tired all the time and weak. I have cirrhosis, and I am going into stage 4 Hep C, which I believe is end stage. I will not stop taking it, but my wife is complaining that all I do is lay around and sleep. I mean, I am exhausted. I am a businessman of 70 years old, and I always get up at 5 AM and run until 9 or 10 pm. If this medicine knocks out the virus, I will take it for 6 to 8 months like the doctor said. As far as having no side effects goes, it may not be as bad as interferon, but it does have some side effects. They are tolerable. The worst part of taking Sovaldi is the cost."

For Hepatitis C "I'm on my 5th week now, my viral load, according to my doctors at the VA Hospital, is 0. But I have had several side effects: Sofosbuvir/Ribavirin, extreme rashes (every day), weakness, tiredness, and my hemoglobin is low (below 10). BUT, all in all, if it goes away, then it's worth any side effect. I've been on interferon twice, my viral load was at 0 last time and the Hep-C came back!"
