Thanks Isiscat and Cinnamon. I will definitely have another VL taken maybe one at 8 weeks and then one at 12 weeks.

The odds are in your favor and the UND at 5 weeks EOT is definitely good news, Skewed.  smile   Will you have another VL check at 12 weeks EOT?

That`s excellent news, Skewed!  And it shows just how powerful this drug combo is. 

Yes, your liver enzymes are still very good at that level and they do tend to fluctuate anyway. 

Sending all best wishes to you and I hope your heart problem resolves itself. Thanks for the update and I`m really pleased for you still being UND.  I think at this point you`re still in with a chance of reaching SVR so try and stay optimistic! 

Onwards and upwards...and take care!  smile

Thanks RudiRoo. I forgot to mention that my ALT and AST were both 22. I'm not sure why both numbers have risen but they are both well within the normal range :)

I just got back my viral load results for EOT + 5 weeks and they are still UND. As many of you know, I had to quit treatment early (at 6 weeks) because of chest pain and heart flutters. I still have minor chest pain and the flutters are still here but not as frequent as they were. I'm hoping and praying that my heart will heal itself. The good news is that since I only stayed on the meds for 6 weeks, it seems amazing that I'm still UND 5 weeks later.

Also, I used a different lab this time (Mayo clinic) the last UND reading came from Quest Diagnostic labs--just to get a second opinion ---so-to-speak.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for SVR!
