Excellent, Joe, great to hear this!!  Congratulations!!  biggrin

Now you`ve successfully cleared the virus you should expect to see a gradual improvement in your fibrosis level, the liver is an amazingly resilient organ! 

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your great news with us...enjoy your Hep C free life, and do keep in touch!!

Hi Joe,

Great to hear from you again. The SVR was never in doubt with your early RVR and the 48 weeks of Victrelis triple must now be a distant memory.

Your platelets remain low and the AST is still up a bit. They should gradually improve.

Remember there's still a risk (much reduced) of HCC, so consider 6 monthly screening for this. Ask your doc for a liver Ultrasound.

Your portal hypertension should settle down and hopefully you will get significant fibrosis resolution. Enjoy life mate. cheers.

Congratulations. I still have about one month left until I find out. I see my PCP next week so I will get news then on my vl but I see the specialist the first week of December to get the official news. I am getting very nervous. Next week I could get good news or I may get bad news. Either way, I'm gonna deal with whatever happens. I am so happy for you and hope to make a similar post soon. Enjoy your new life.

Congratulations Joe!!! So glad to hear the great news. Your labs look good, and hopefully your platelets and cell counts will improve in time and give you a boost! I wish you continued good luck!! Keep in touch and let us know how your news on fibrosis reduction comes along.
