Had hep c for 33 years.Finished two drug program May of 2011.11 months of living hell.Blood test later showed relapse.Started 3 drug program 5 weeks ago.Bad side affects.Flaming hemeroids.Improved by keeping it clean often and using some Pramasone cream.I do not have much faith in the new treatment.To me when you go into remission,the drugs are not locating all of the virus in your body.Incivec keeps the virus from multiplying as you start treatment.My first 2 drug treatment,the viral count dropped like a stone the first month of treatment as my doctor states.So on the 2nd treatment of the 3 drug treatment,if the results are the same as the first,all of the virus will not be destroyed .It will possibly go into remission again.For months on my 1st treatment,the viral count was zero.This is why I have no faith in the new treatment where Incivec keeps the virus from multiplying.I need a drug that will seek out the virus thats hiding or not being located in the body,and destroy it.This is a way to treat cronic hep c patients.I will continue with this new program for 12 weeks and post the results.
