"I will agree this treatment is hard, but don't be put off. The first time I did my course of 2 tablets in morning and 2 at night followed by weekly injection it was hard, but no harder than the heroin habit I had was. The virus cleared up after 20 weeks,which they shouldn't have told me, as I stopped taking the treatment but didn't tell my doctor (I told you its not easy).

This time I'm sticking it out. I am from UK Under Bradford NHS and love the staff there for all their help...."
