Thanks                                         R.N Bhargava Doctor: Hi..First of all don't be tense. Luckily now a days very effective oral medication is available. For genotype 1 your doctor will prescribe ledipasavir/sofsobuvir medication. Start medication as early as possible. Go for transplant after completion of course which is generally 12-24 weeks. All the best. if you have any questions feel free to contact me.
