Yes, it's true...I am in remission from the nasty Hepatitis C, type 1 virus. All thanks to Harvoni, the miracle drug. One pill once per day for 12 weeks. I am so happy, I can't even tell you how much. I spoke with a nurse at the Bio Plus pharmacy and she said that within a year my liver should be like new, too! Your liver is the only organ in your body that rejuvenates itself.
The remission part, really got me. What is the chance that the Hep C virus will resurface? The nurse I talked to said there is a very slim chance! I think I would like to say I am cured. It sounds better and the chance it will come back probably has something to do with the way I take care of myself in the next year, while my liver is rejuvenating.
I have decided to keep up a really healthy diet and not drink for another 3 months. I don't think I will ever smoke again either. When I do drink, it will only be a glass of wine or a beer with dinner. I have started taking multiple vitamins and just got a B12 shot. I plan on getting another B12 shot each month for about a year.
I have really started feeling better and my skin is starting to look really healthy too. My platelets and White Blood count are above normal, but are about 5 units above normal. Hopefully that will change soon.
If you are reading this blog and wondering about taking Harvoni to cure your Hep C...do it...it's worth it and Harvoni really works! Much love to you on your journey!
