INR
(Preview)
Does anyone know if a move from 1.11 to 1.22 INR means anything serious? Everything else is perfectly normal and Alk Phos, AST, and ALT are all mid-range normal. But, it's always been below 1.20 previously.

I went for an ultrasound today and it appears that I have lost the fluid from my abdomen. I know that my bilirubin level is down so I'm hoping that I have made the step back from decomensated to compensated. I know I have gone down a stage on the Child-Pugh level anyway. So far, so good!

Hi guys, It's hard to believe but it's 2 years since I finished my 48 weeks of the Victrelis triple. I really don't think I have any residual effects from the drugs and it's hard to know if I have any long-term HepC problems. At my age, it's hard to know what's normal-for-age.

Harvoni Post TX
(Preview)
Hi all, Since Harvoni is so new and with lots of people now reaching/post EOT, it would be great to hear from those who have completed their treatment. How are you doing? Any changes, good or bad, that you think are due to coming off the drug or to being HCV free? Thanks - Tess

I honestly thought I'd never be one of the winners in this game because having Hep C was such a part of who I am, but it looks like it may happen. All I can say is I...
