SS,

Please drop back and tell us how it is going, how long before you feel like you old self again, if you ever do.

I know I am a 3rd of the way still und and the PA tells me that they will not check Viral load again till 48wk mark then at 6 months.

Fajah

Congratulations! Any advice? I was diagnosed with Hep C a couple of years ago. I have been putting off treatment, fearing a worsening of my depression (which is fairly manageable at present).

Truth be told - the whole thing scares me. I will see a doctor this Weds., the first I've consulted since I had a biopsey when diagnosed.

Is there a certain number or other benchmarks that will determine if its neccesary to begin treatment. I want to make it my decision not the doctor's.

Again, you must feel very proud of finishing. Best Wishes, Willy

Congratulations brother. I am impressed. You stayed the course and kicked ass for 48 weeks. They don't come much tougher in my book. Go slow and heal. Tell your very supportive wife, she "done good" too. Where would we be without them? I am proud to have met you and I know we will stay in touch. God bless you.

Congrats Steve. Welcome to the other side. It took me about 5 weeks to feel detoxed but now I'm hitting the gym on a regular basis trying to get back into some sort of shape as well. Now it's on to SVR. Best, Dave
