I love that pic of you Dan...I have family pics in our guest room and I printed that one up of you and Jax and it is on our bookshelf.  We hope you come out to visit soon, mom & dad will be here Aug. 22.  Glad to hear you arn't nervous.  I am nervous for you but really think it is test error or they ran a different test than what they have before. :)

Alan...I am feeling better each day.  I really think I have more of my energy back but it is hard to tell because we have had the in-laws in town and have been busy entertaining.  They left on Wednesday so back to normal life and we will see how I do from here :)  Glad you are feeling well and even though it isn't fast enough it is better than before!!

aloha,

Meghan

Yes, a couple of our members have gotten low but detectable readings during treatment, then they went back to undetectable. It is scary as hell. But they continue in treatment, and continue to be undetectable. A bunch of us, me included, think it is a goof on the test, but what do we know? Anyway, tell that man not to be a stranger. We miss him. I hope you are feeling a little better every day. It is not fast enough for me, but I can feel it. Alan

My brother is also on treatment and he has been undetectable since week 4.  His 24 week viral load tests came back slightly detectable....has anyone experienced this before?  I told him to have his doc re-test for possible lab error.

thanks,

Meghan
