Is anyone take Epclusa and living with COPD?

Hi, I'm supposed to start Epclusa treatment next week I'm 65yrs old geno 3 hi VL F1 fibro 7.3 recently diagnosed emphysema (COPD). The trouble with starting treatment is I'm into week 2 of quitting cigarettes. I feel completely exhausted, don't know if my body can handle treatment and quitting. I'm running out of time any ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks
