Anyone travel to Bengladesh?
« on: December 03, 2015, 10:25:26 am »
Has anyone in this group traveled to Bengladesh?  I am curious because I just skyped with a pharmacist who told me that I could obtain Twinvir (harvoni) for a little over $1000.  Seems almost too good to be true!
HCV 1996- Work Exposure ER nurse
GT 1a
Non-responder to Interferon in 1997
ALT 73 AST 21 F1-2
Applied to Insurance for Harvoni 12-15
Denied 12-3-15  Told I would never qualify for Harvoni because I was not 'ill'.
Started Twinvir (Bengladesh Harvoni) on 1/1/16

After 4 weeks ALT 23, AST 15, HCV-RNA UNDETECTED
After 8 weeks:AST 23, AST 11, HCV RNA UNDETECTED
6 weeks post treatment, undetected.

Hi,
There is a lot of good info about Twinvir on the fixHepc website.
From what I gather, it is as you describe, but true.

I just checked, people are ordering Twinvir and having it delivered in Europe.  I believe a prescription was required by the pharmacy.  These are all things I have read. I have no actual first hand about Twinvir or Incepta.  I DO know there is a Incepta rep on fixhepc who will talk to you.  Parvez is his name.

Money can buy power.
Information is power.
