Well the good news is you are responding which shows the treatment is working. The liver functions returning to normal is also great. How long it's been since your liver has had a break? (if i remember correctly, you have dealt with this for a while) Your next test will most likely show UND. Hang in there.

Yessir, on the Incivek triple week 4 is huge. You will probably have no detectable virus left. Then you can settle in for the next eight weeks. I hope you are adjusting well to the dosing schedule and the various discomforts associated with this treatment. I have said it before, Incivek is a very powerful ally, but also a very obnoxious one. Good luck, and when your labs come back let us know.

Alan
