Thks Jill. Actually I'll be fine whatever the outcome. I'm hoping for UND at the end of the month...but if it turns out otherwise then so be it. I will reassess my options. By the third treatment attempt (me)...I fully understand this is more of a "crap shoot" than anything, although we seem to be on the threshold of a more definitive cure. Odds are slowly swaying our way :):):)

Thanks. If this doesn't work....I will look into "natural therapy/remedy" to maintain a low to normal enzyme count till something better comes out :)

No lead in. Started everything at once. Maybe because this is my third attempt. First 2 attempts were interferon/ribavirin only. My VL was 1.3 mil before I started. Not sure on the 4 week results (although all bloodwork was performed) as I was on a mandatory 2 month initial start. At 2 months the viral load had to be 99 or lower. Was hoping und. 100 vl isn't great news, but get to keep fighting the good fight for another month and hopefully will be und next blood draw.

Did you miss any doses? Just curious because i know you were about to stop tx before due to side effects. Make sure you take all meds on time and as dr orders them buddy.I am praying for good news for you @ week 12!

Well...Got my 8 week results back. Was hoping for UND. If 99 vl or less...continue treatment. 100 vl or greater...I'm taken off treatment. I was right at 100....so Doc decided to continue another month at least. I'm sure I'll have to be und by the end of july to continue. Still living in the big question mark. lol
