Congratulations! Well done! I was going to post about
these questions I have: Do you feel less tired than you did prior to treatment? During treatment, did you feel even more fatigued or less so? What can you recommend for fat intake with meds?
Hugs,
Connie

hey connie, i was in really good condition before i started tx. the 1st month of tx for me was the worst. after 3 weeks i noticed a slight uptick in energy, because the virus was undetectable. but i didnt feel abig difference till i stopped incivek. anemia and and depression were the tough sides the last 9 months. one thing i realized about
fat intake was, for 3 mos. i ate pizza, bratwurst, ice cream. i didnt want fiber because i wanted to keep my bm solid. really helps with the volcano butt. your situation is so different from me. i have no restrictions. your liver numbers are going to improve, so hopefully your fatigue will improve. best of luck always, barry

Interesting to read, not sure of what treatment Barry is having and for what reason, being from Liverpool England can I ask what is bratwurst, ( brat is something we say when our kids are spoilt & don't appreciate what they get)

Sue, it's the newest treatment for hep C. It is a combination of 3 drugs.
A brat in the US is the same as in England. But bratwurst is a sausage.
Hugs,
Connie
