Epclusa And Leg And Back Pain (Page 2)
UpdatedHas anyone taken Epclusa and experienced back and leg pain? I already have 2 herniated discs but it seems that since I started the medicine it has increased my pain and started pain in my legs.

That's what there favourite reply is,never heard of that before , IV had ejust about every side effect ,no virus but my immune system is stuffed now looks like I may have coronary problems ,14 mths after treatment wish I never touched there wonder drug felt better pre treatment.
Re: Lou (# 21)
I wish I had done more personal research before I started this. The information on side effects is worthless, the long term results are non-existent. I stopped yesterday after 6 weeks, I think I had every side effect, physical and mental, that anyone has mentioned. I’d never been in this much pain for this long. I told my pharmacist that the lack of post-treatment evidence is disturbing. She said it’s because once you’re cured there’s no need for more information. I felt like I’d stepped into an alternate reality. I have messages in to my doctors.

I think we all need an apology a big one from Gilliard and our government s ,we are not guinea pigs !if anybody out there want somebody to help get some kind of action from Gilliard please cont me ,who knows how long we have on this planet, maybe that was there idea get rid of a few million people ,afterall.only a minority ,
Re: Lou (# 23)
I exactly agree about the guinea pigs. It’s like we’re part of the clinical trials.
I finished Hep C treatment with Epclusa 3 yrs ago. Dealing with puffy feet. Anyone else suffering long term side effects from Epclusa or Harvoni? Thanks
Re: KB (# 24)
Hi kB what part of the world are you ? I'm in Australia and it's very hard trying to get any info ,liver clinic and drs don't like to admit that we are guinea pigs ,I finished treatment few yrs ago and still getting side effects ,wish I never touched there wonder med !!
Re: KB (# 22)
Exactly same thing happening here in Australia ,I felt better before I did treatment,take care
Re: Alex (# 8)
Alex ,just read your Poste about epclusa ,I did treatment 2017 still having heaps side effects numb puffy feet swollen stomach nausea infections ect just recently had blood test now I'm vit D deficient big time, trying to find out if treatment I did may have caused it .hope you are going ok ,I'm in my 60s in Australia ,any info appreciated.
Re: HepCFree (# 17)
Hi I'm in Australia where are you ,I'm also suffering since epclusa been diagnosed recently with COPD late asthma ,also heart problems last week was told vit D deficient ( 24 ) have to take capsules supplement 4000 iu a day constant knee pain back pain constipation scared to get tested for anything else ,pre treatment I went to beach enjoyed traveling felt fine for a 67 yr old who had hcv for yrs I wish I never touched it and still had the virus !every time I try to explain to Gilliard or liver clinic they say same thing " oh never heard of that before" which is obviously a lie ,IV dealt with a lot of different people over the years but never experienced lies like this from the so called experts lol, they need to be taken to court asp ,IV by to 4 funerals in 12 mths each deceased had done epclusa or Harvoni ,we need people to unite all over the world who have been damaged,they had the hide at liver clinic to say don't read the internet articles I'm so glad I did , anyone wants to compare with me ,be really interested thanks ,Lou
Re: mary (# 13)
Me too!! Big time, I'm in Australia feel like my life is now ruined,we were guinea pigs for Gilliard and liver clinics,I'm sick of going to funerals caused by Epclusa or Harvoni , people need to unite !!! Why shud they get rich on us !!
Re: mary (# 13)
I forgot to say that get vit D levels checked ,seems treatment did a lot of damage to me , including immune system vit D.good luck Mary let me know if any clues on making someone responsible ok.
Re: Lou (# 30)
Thanks Lou, I too am feeling like crap 8 months after Epclusa treatment. Sailed thru 12 weeks just fine. A few months after my thighs and knees began to ache. I gained weight in my hips and thighs despite strict dieting. Water weight ? Maybe 5-8 pounds. Ears ring, dizzy before treatment. My thyroid levels put me from a 0.8 to a 7.3 in a year. Cholesterol all messed up too. My leg pain is scaring me. Too late to go back now.Whats done is done. Big lack of info and help on us survivors is the worst. Someone needs to do some serious follow-ups regarding our issues. Big Pharma tries to help us and yes, virus gone but at what cost to our future lives ??
