Has anyone in here gone through the Hepatitis C treatment {Pegasys & Rebetol}? Please share experiences.?

I'd like to know about how you felt, if you completed treatment and, if so, was the virus eradicated. I was diagnosed with Hepatitis C infection {genotype 3} in 2003 but have been postponing treatment. I've heard horror stories about the side effects of treatment. The vast majority of those whom I've asked stopped the treatment due to the side effects. A few ones completed it but were not cured {they are all genotype 1}. Any honest answers will be welcome.
