Good Morning to All!
I have just taken my first Harvoni tab this morning. My partner did a drum roll...
I am excited by the possibilities of my life without HCV.

Welcome skycatcher (love your name)!
You've taken an exciting step, and certainly worthy of a drum roll :)
I've completed 12 wk treatment and in the long wait period moving toward final testing later this month and again in September.
I hope your path will be smooth and your side effects few. Unless you have a health issue that prevents it, drinking LOTS of water will resolve most anything and certainly help flush those Hep C demons out of your body. Even now, drinking more water seems to be key to feeling better.

Thanks Island Girl! -- great name all I can think of is tropical breezy beaches. Good choice.
Day 2 everything is just going on along. Feel a little different but nothing to squawk about. Mainly I feel exhilarated at the possibility of being HCV free and regaining my energy.
I agree water is so-o-o important -- more so now than ever. Hydrating is my middle name now. I have been a big fan of H2O for long, long time but I have renewed my love of this pure thing.
Where I live I believe the water has too much sodium in it and a high mineral content but a resourceful fellow put in these water purification stands. It uses osmosis filtration of the municipal water supply. So the majority of my water is this plus bottled H2O that I go and fill. A really great thing to have here.
I have had HCV probably since 1971 so I am really looking forward to a life where perhaps I will have more energy and maybe some to spare.
Sounds like things are going really well for you. Has your energy level increased post treatment?
