The people interviewed for this project expressed a range of views about their health, wellbeing and vitality after hepatitis C treatment (see Broadsheet No. 3, Experiences of DAA treatment and hepatitis C cure: Treatment knowledge, interactions with health professionals and questions after cure). For some, treatment was a positive experience that led to feelings of optimism about the future and ongoing changes in how they managed their health and wellbeing. For others, treatment experiences did not have long-term significance, and hepatitis C was simply something they no longer considered relevant.
