I have been looking into the insulin resistance caused by the virus as a possible way to detect and circumvent relapse by using a simple test like blood sugar level test.  I now think a metabolism comparison is the way to go, I recognize  the need for this kind of test simply because the high cost and complexity of the test used now is prohibitive, if using it just to gain peace of mind, and I foresee a lot of people seeking peace of mind in this regard.

  Having said that the best we can achieve is to keep the levels so low we clear it our-self , without the aid of the drugs.  It will never be Totally gone. That is just a cold hard fact we must face.

Relapse rates post SVR are around 1-2% according to studies that have been conducted to date.  Small amounts of the virus that can remain are generally taken care of by our immune systems.

These are drugs people of earth not miracles from God!!   lol

                 I mean i even heard my gastro say when the virus is gone its gone ......  biopsy every couple months or years after SVR should without any shadow of a doubt confirm regeneration of GOOD healthy stuff or show resdiual damage that never healed right ??? and follow up blood draws will show viral loads and enzyme levels.... whice should read ZERO 

I hear that after it goes undetected they cant track numbers anymore but i also hear that they have a super duper test that detect minute traces even below undetectable range .. and thats the 1 will request if i get SVR iLL say do it again this time with super duper ... i dont want even 1 billionth of a cell of the dragon i want him deader then Atlantis ... he once exsisted but there is no trace 

thats what i want NO TRACE .. so i dont ever have to think what if .....
