Welcome to the forum. Great numbers! You have a good chance I'd say of SVR. I'm on a clinical trial right now and my labs are looking good too.

Welcome Cathy!

That VL result is very good and what I hope for when I get my 4wk results back. I'm also on Sovaldi / Ribavirin (day 29) so I'll be very interested in your progress. I'm glad your here and hope you keep coming back. It's a great place for information, understanding and support!!!

Hi Cathy,

Welcome to the Forum. Yes, you should be excited. That's a great drop in Viral Load. The result should say <15 i.u./ml Detected or Undetected (or TND or Positive or Negative). You are probably doing just 12 weeks, so best of luck. Cheers.

Hi Welcome, The place ware you got the CC, is ware we put the information like our genotype and VL., results . So you had a 4 mill Viral load and four weeks into tx you are Undetected, That is what they call a Rapid Viral Response for the ones on Peg-Inf. I think you will be on tx for 24 weeks, I have a URL for a youtube video that will tell you a lot about what to expect from the med's side effects

Hi. Not sure how this forum works. I am on week 5 of Sovaldi/ribavirin. Labs at week 4: <15 iu. Prior to treatment:>40000000. Should I be excited?
