Review for PAN Foundation, Washington, DC, USA
I found out that I had hepc about 30 years ago. My husband was diagnosed at the same time. I wanted to try to do the interferon trial as I knew this virus was a death sentence. So my husband was against it. But my ex husband had been diagnosed and did the year long regiment and was cured. When I started this regimen in the beginning I was able to hold down a full time job. Within 3months I not only lost my job I almost lost my life. That interferon was equal to chemotherapeutic cancer medication..I lasted 3 months I can’t imagine a year. 30 years later my virus rearned its ugly head. When I was so sick I knew I had to do something. I met a doctor that specializes in hepc Dr Bob Wallace. My health insurance would not cover anything. Dr Wallace found a charity to cover the medication for 3 months I started the medication 4 days later. No side effects just a pill a day.. Happy to say after 3 months of taking the medication Mavyret I was diagnosed free of the virus and I could say that I do not have
Just wanted to thank the charities , my doctor and most of all ours Heavenly Father My husband finally saw a doctor, he died 3 days later in my arms.
