Hi Bama,

Some conclusions.

Non-responder to previous treatment in a Geno 3, means no luck with 24 weeks of Peg/Riba. Re-treatment with this is not an option. ?mark about whether Interferon will work. Not enough is known about Sovaldi/Peg/Riba.

Ultrasound diagnosis of splenomegaly is suspicious of cirrhosis. A biopsy or Fibroscan should be performed.

Hi Bama,

This report describes a few things. First it mentions you are a genotype 3, have had and failed, treatment previously. You must have had a diagnostic ultrasound that showed an enlarged spleen. The platelet count of 212,000 is quite normal. A typical normal platelet range is 150,000 to 400,000 cubic mm. There is also mention that further treatment with a interferon based protocol isn't contraindicated. If you have any other questions please ask.
