Hi Carol, that`s brilliant news, congrats to you both!

I wouldn't worry about hubby`s WBC level being a bit low at 1.5 weeks, it usually takes a while for blood cells to normalize after treatment. The most important thing is the UND result...onwards to SVR!  smile

Husbands's EOT plus 1.5 week viral load came back as undetectable, so we are that much closer to SVR! 

All of his other liver function tests came back normal as well.  However, his white blood cell count is still a bit low, like it has been

the duration of the treatment.  Does this result tend to take some time to normalize?

 

Thanks,

Carol
