Title: Finished 11 months Incivek/IFN treatment
Post by: onemoretime on July 08, 2012, 02:50:43 pm

hello,  I just finished 11 months of treatment.. I did incivik (Telaprivir) for the first 12 weeks and Pegasis and rivaviran for 11 months.... this treatment has KICIKED MY ASS!!!   I spent the year in bed... instead of having my cbc slowly go down, with the start of incivek it tanked way early.. i had 3 blood transfusions for anemia.  I am 3 weeks off it now.. (i started 3 days after fda approval)  My anemica is much better  and i generaly feel better i can wake up earlier in the morning but my cd4 dropped to 208 from 600 with in a 2 months of starting this... HIV and HCV undectable......now  cd4 is 151  on 0612.    was 158 in april.  i am so sick today  but i do have good days.  Lets pray it worked.  it did stop my liver labs from being all over the place and stoped the inflmation
