This I didn't think was important.But it is.The treatment in very hard on you because of the side effects.I was better prepared on my 2nd treatment on Incevek.But I didn't keep my health in check.My system got weak from too much treatment and I had a severe drug reaction.I came down with anaphylaxis and rushed to the hospital on week 11 of the new treatment.My blood pressure was 71/40 and I was covered head to toe with a red rash.So keep track of your health with your PCP and stay close to your blood dr.Ask a lot of questions.This way you will have a better chance of getting rid of your hep c.
