Thanks all for your support, i still won't be satisfied till i am undetected for about 1 year. I just don't trust this nasty sneaky virus. But i still am very happy now.

Good luck to all on TX, cheering for you.

BOB

Hey Bob

That is the best news a forum member could have and well deserved I might add.

I don't personally know your other treatment history and how it when down,  but I would say because of the others that had triply therapy similar to your situation and they had permanent lasting results you have a very, very high percentage of maintaining SVR.  

So before you know it you will be saying that sweet saying (" when I used to have Hep C"). 

It sounds pleasant just to say it now, even for me.  

Matt

Hi Bob,

Another great result!! Very happy for you mate. I would say the Dragon's more than Half-Dead! I suspect it's gone! Hope you're almost back to normal. Cheers.
