Many congratulations!!!  You did it the hard way and succeeded.  My trial was nothing compared to your treatment.  I am so happy for you.  It should just keep getting better and better.

Congrats Hepcat!! I've wondered about you and how things were going. You were one of the few remaining 48 weekers and to be at 95% after squeezing yourself through a hose backwards for nearly a year is pretty darn good!! I'm really happy for ya brother, keep it up!

Hi Hepcat,

Looking good, and I'd call that SVR 16. Glad to hear you're back to 95%. The remainder will come in time, and then some. Enjoy life. Cheers, 48week warrior.

King Kong congratulations Hepcat!  Looks like chances are great for SVR for you.  Keep those finger crossed and also Sandy too.  Next month I have my 6 month test, so far so good.  Makes all the suffering during the tx worth it, even with the lingering sides, tho those are diminishing with each day.  Am thinking positive thoughts for you guys and all the other sisters and brothers waiting for the good news also.

Later.......

I have been pretty busy lately and feeling about 95 percent.

To make a long story short........ My doctor took a sabbatical about the time I completed treatment and cancelled my Jan apt telling informing me she would rescheduled in a couple of weeks.  She still hasn't returned and I transferred to another gasto person.  Had my labs done last week- 4 months out.  UND!
