You are not being paranoid because there is some research out there that shows that UND on less sensitive tests did not result in SVR - however 15 is pretty low.  I am lucky that I get Heptimax.  Let me know if you want me to look for this research

Happy to report another undetected at 12 weeks. Platelets down to 60,000 but who caresbiggrin. Can my US friends help? How many have access to Heptimax? We do not have it in Australia. My Lab uses the Roche PCR Quantitative test that goes down to 15 copies. So my report reads' <15, Target Not Detected. When I get to 24 weeks I would like to have a more sensitive test as Heptimax goes as low as 5 copies. Am I being paranoid?
