Congratulations on achieving SVR4, WOOT!! That's a real milestone because reaching EOT+4 undetected, shares almost identical rates of success for SVR12. This is good news!
You suffered the typical Interferon/Riba side effects. Then add the Sovaldi to the mix and you had that to navigate too. It'll take you some time to recover and clear all the drugs, the Sovaldi and Interferon clear relatively quickly, then the Ribavirin can take 6 months to finally leave you alone. Continue to take good care of yourself, keep hydrating and watch the diet. Of course, rest is very important when you need it. It'll take some time to get the anemia resolved. Everyone on Int/Riba has some anemia, shortness of breath, etc. So take it easy and just enjoy that Hep free future that's sure to come. Good luck and stay positive. You have no reason not to be thrilled with your progress!
