Heyyyyyy Buddy good to hear from you.

I've been off trmt now for more than 3 years because of severe complications anemia bleeds and more but I was in late stage and cirrhosis. Brain fog was worse for me on trmt but also compounded by my stage grade and other medical problems at the time. At stage 4 I think I lived in a constant state of mass confusion.

The brain fog has definitely gotten better but I haven't felt the same or like myself for over 5 years now since I went into stage 3 than 4 than transplant.

I can't blame it on trmt meds now and it is now medically proven that HCV does cause mental confusion extreme chronic fatigue and many neurological problems to name a few.

My Dr's and I have contributed my problems now to being in chronic HCV stage once again and being on very strong toxic anti rejection meds.

I don't think we ever feel completely normal again after many years with HCV related to our stage and grade reached our unique medical problems and the meds we are on.

Love and Hugs.

Take Care and God Bless.

Hi Loretta,I have peripheral nueropathy in my legs and feet so more joint pain wouldn't be fun.I am going to give it a try.I feel like I owe that to myself and family.I've progressed to stage 3 fibrosis in the three years after my transplant.This dragon is reaking havoc on my new liver.
