Welcome Ron.

 I just started treatment also 7-23-14 taking Sovaldi / Ribavirin so we will be interested in some of the same subjects on here. This site is a great source of information and support from a whole bunch of caring and knowledgeable members who are in the same boat as us. I'm sure glad your here and hope you keep coming back!!!

Hi Ron,

Welcome to the forum! We may not know everything, but we make finding the answers easier. Best of luck with your Solvaldi tx, please make yourself at home.

@Malcolm, that dog has got you 'hooked' mate.

Hi Ron,

Welcome to the Forum. You are lucky to have the Genotype that's easiest to treat, so I'm sure you'll do well. You may get some anaemia from the Ribavirin, but I hope you have an easy treatment. Cheers.

Hi Ron,, We are all glad you came.

We are all in this together keep your stick on the ice. Red Green Show

Welcome Ron.

This is a great resource.  Good luck on your treatment.  I am on week 6 of a 12 week Merck clinical trial.  So far, so good.

Keep us posted!

Hi Ron,

Welcome to the forum. We share the same genotype. I am waiting for my labs in Dec. to find out if I achieved SVR. Good luck with your treatment. There are some folks here that know so much about this disease and the different treatment so ask if you have any questions. I don't personally know the answers but this forum has people who do have answers. 

I also has a high viral load of 19,000,000 at treatment but was undectable 4 weeks post treatment. I was on sovaldi and ribavirin. The ribavirin kicked my butt so I hope it worked. I'm really glad to meet you and keep checking here cause you'll find lots of information.

my best
