What’s up everybody…Wow…I want to thank everyone for the views and subscriptions! You’ve all inspired me to start making more videos about my journey with HCV recovery with my beautiful wife, Elyse Jai! If you haven’t already…check out our music. It’s mostly about being a recovering addict and overcoming! Hope y’all enjoy…stay tuned in for more!

Man, I have genotype 3 as well. I am 31 and have had it since 23. I have moderate Fibrosis. My viral load was 18,400,000 (whatever widgets they are measured in). I thank God. I feel like I got this Mavyret at the 11th hour. I'm having some weird side effects. I'm getting these heat/numbing waves in my face and pelvic region. I'm pretty exhausted and my eye floaters are going nuts. But, right now I really don't care. I'm just grateful. Thanks for sharing your experience. It means everything.

Just started my treatment Tuesday. So glad I found your video, makes me feel so much better! Two years clean off of heroin. Keep on living the good life!

I just started that drug 3 days ago, I’ve very blessed to have gotten it through the drug company as well. It’s a 8 week treatment, unfortunately I do have cirrhosis but with the right diet and this I can continue a normal life

Thanks for sharing your videos I really appreciate the info. I have had Hep C for about 14years now. I am a recovering drug user i have been clean for about 3years now. I am starting my Mavyret treatment in 2 weeks. Seeing your videos makes me feel really good about this treatment. Thanks for the videos once again. 🙂

Day 5 of the first week, and our stories are super similar.. genotype 3, intense intravenous drug use in my teens and early 20s, and little to no damage, despite waiting 13 or so years to do anything about it. I'm having nausea along with the fatigue .. you both have really given me hope

Just started weds!! After being dormant and my insurance turning me down my Abbie assistant group helped me for free !!

Im 16 1/2 yrs clean, and I was not aware of a cure until about a year ago, Then I started researching the cure, and I was finally approved for “Mavyret”. I have type 1A, and Ive had HCV for 19-20 years, with no liver damage at all, I was really blessed with that one. But I just started today, and I’m excited. Once im cured i wanna get back in the gym, and get back in shape. Thanks for the upload.

Thanks for your experience! I have genotype 3 as well. Currently 4 days into my 3rd week of Mavyret. I definitely feel the fatigue your speaking of. It can be annoying, but it’s not devastating. Will go get my first blood draw since taking the medicine next week. 🤞

Just saw your video and I'm starting mavyret today so happy for you I'm thankful for getting mine for free my insurance pays for it only once it's 60,000 dollars now y'all are so sweet love it

I'm here in Seattle, and my methadone program got me onto the 60-day Mavyret regimen as soon as I had a blood work up done. I'd tested positive for Hep-C since 1997, and I was scared. But I was heroin addicted and in '97, I think all they had was Interferon, which DID have serious side effects. I'm into my 2nd week now with Mavyret and have experienced zero side effects. I'm very, very relieved and grateful to have this opportunity. 🙏

I just started today and I'm at work with no side effects. My dad was on interferon and it fucked him up. So glad they came this far

THERE YOU ARE. so glad to see you back

Sorry for any typos. My vision is blurry as well with this treatment but I’m not complaining. Thank you both for this video. I forgot to mention that in my biography. Lol ☺️ ❤

Thank you guys I start tommorow morning

Saw this post is old but I too started my treatment and just finished my 1rst box , and yes all you said is true , I got my treatment for free the 2 boxes and if you get it tru this way use it as it is intended cause The Mavyret company and the insurance ONLY give it free once in a lifetime for each Patient soo use it right

Thanks for the video. I have type 3, been about 6 years now been sober for 3 years. I decided it's time to do something about this finally, my load is on the high side, blood work came back that I'm healthy still. I have another Dr appointment before he decides what medicine is best for me. Mavryte looks promising. I'll be so glad to get this over with it's hard on the nerves... Thanks for the great videos really up lifting 😊😊.

Thanks for sharing

Bad side effects after two days and my doc has stopped temporarily (until I feel normal) then start again. Hope for the best!

I'm 3days into my mavryt treatment I hope the fatigue doesn't last the whole 8weeks I have gen type 1 I think

So i ended up getting my meds after a shit show with insurance. Been on it for 6 weeks now. My blood work came back and my viral load is under 15 but its still detecable. And on another not thats got me worried is my doctor said my white blood cell count is high and my hemoglobin is low and i need more blood work and when i google that which i shouldnt of done it says leukemia lol i hate Google

tnx

Just started my treatment today

Did anyone try Milk Thistle

I’m gonna start the treatment and I’m so scared for the side effects because I’m gonna start a new job and I’m afraid not to have energy well is just a part time job from 3 to 6 pm and in top of all I have cancer but I’m been treating the cancer naturally with a homeopathic dr she is great ! But however I want to see if you can please encourage me not to fear I am a woman of God and I live alone I’m sure God will be by my side in this journey and the best of this is that your husband said in one MONTH!!! He was already cute that’s a really really awesome!! News thank you for your video so most likely is just you feel very tired can I go to the gym ?? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️maybe no maybe yes and can I drive yes or no ?? Can I climb the stairs from my building I hate elevator can I cook do I have strength to cook or even eat 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Does/did anyone have any experience with loss of appetite with HCV? I'm on my second week of Mavyret and my appetite basically has been non existent since my diagnosis of hep c. Hopefully the treatment changes something.

Thank you much love… #yournotalone

Do you feel better since you completed treatment? Do you feel more energetic??

Just started today on this med. It took 2 months of appointments to finally get meds!! I'm not a drug addict and my partner of 12 years doesn't have it. The only thing I can think of is that I got it from the nail salon. Worried about side effects because I work overnight 12 hour shifts.

Do you feel better physically than you did before you started the treatment? I was j.w cuz i always feel like shit but dont know if its from the hep or just other shit.

She's sweet!

I honestly LOVE y’all!!! I love your energy and your spirit!! I’m so happy and thankful to God that you’re better!! I’m on day 9 and I haven’t had really any side effects but one good thing is I can’t finally eat! I could go for days and not want to eat, I was always so tired, and it just hit me out of the blue one day! I got tested and that really hurt!!! I thought I was going to die and not be able to see my grand daughters graduate, get married, and I’d miss all their very important mile stones! I’m geno type 1 with 0 scar tissue and that’s AMAZING! I was sooo thankful to God and just started to pray and praise Him🙌🏼♥️💕🥰🧎🏻‍♀️ I had exploratory surgery when I was 13 and that was in 82, so they told me that many people had contracted hep C from that time period. How do you feel now and how long did it take for you to get your energy back? I got vaccinated for HepB and still have 2 more to go but the Dr told me that my case wasn’t bad like some. When you had it, did you all of a sudden just feel bad and nothing was interesting anymore to you? I just wanted to lay in bed all day and not do a thing! I have to care for my husband and he’s a stage 5 chronic kidney disease patient and I think he’s put dialysis off for so long now that his outlook is bad. I’m a mess y’all!! I was a widow at the age of 35 and lost my true soul mate and now have been married to this wonderful man for 14yrs and he’s not well. Cancer hit him twice within 6 years and he beat it but it damaged his kidneys. I’m trying so hard with prayer and the good Lord with me to get better so that I can try to help my husband. I guess I’m just wondering how long will it be before I feel like I did before I got this? I’m sorry this is so long. Please forgive me. I’m just an old fashioned Carolina grandma trying to feel better. Losing my 25 yr old son 8 yrs ago near Mother’s Day shook me to my core! Not long after that I started to wither away and then Bam!! I found this out! Praise God for the resources for the low income like myself because otherwise, my outlook would be bleak. Much love to you both and you are both beautiful souls that I’m so blessed to have found. May God always bless you with whatever you need and want in life my sister and brother ❤️🙏🏻🙌🏼♥️ We’re all His children and He’s ALWAYS SO GOOD to us! Being able to live another day is a blessing.
