Being an African American I knew my chances
of clearing might be more difficult given the stats. So when the
new medications were made available I decided it was time. I started treatment in March 2012. I was on triple therapy with Incivek, Ribavarin, and Interferon.
My HepC profile:
Genotype: 1a,
IL28B: CT
Viral load: 275,866.
My worst side effects were anemia, weakness (contributed to the anemia), itching, and low absolute neutrophils (ANC).
