Thanks so much for that Brendan, you have made my day!  biggrin  biggrin Yes, I well remember that day when I first nervously made my way to the Seedy Bar and you dusted off a bar stool for me and made me welcome.  You gave us all so much support and encouragement and shared your knowledge freely.  It seems like a long time ago now and so many of us are now doing well, including you Brendan of course, and it`s great that you still find time to pop in when you can.

All the very best to you and thanks again, love from Jill xxx  smile

Well done Jill, a just reward for all the hard work.  It's great to see how you've come along since joining us here, when you were in tx, and now progressing so well in post-tx and achieving SVR.

I hope things continue on for you and things just keep getting better.

lotsa luv,

Brendan.

Wow, thanks so much everyone for your lovely replies!  biggrin biggrin

I`m still on a high this morning, I think it will take a while to sink in after such a long wait.  Well worth waiting for though, and I`m really keeping my fingers crossed that we will be seeing a lot more good news and good results coming in over the next few weeks and months.

Good luck everyone, keep up the good work!

All the best to you all, Jill xxx smile

Hi folks, well it`s been a long wait but I finally got my 6 mnth PCR results today and heard those 3 little words I`ve been waiting for...SVR!

So that`s it - no more blood tests, no more hospital appointments or follow ups, finished, finito, done and dusted!  smile

Thanks so much to all of you lovely people who have given me so much support and friendship thoughout my tx and beyond, love you all.  And all the very best of luck to everyone currently on tx, or about to start, wishing you all a successful outcome.

All the very best to you all, Jill xxxx
