Hey Rene

Great to read of your test result, sounds like it comes from your 4 weeks from start of treatment Labs. You have reached the first plateau of toward successfully achieving SVR.

From here its staying compliant and letting the Harvoni reach into all the hidden areas of your Body and liver. This takes most of all time, time to get the blood to those areas which need exposure to the Harvoni.

Its a proven fact through clinical trials that 24 weeks of steady exposure to multiple DAA's translates into very high SVR percentages. In other words after reaching this plateau the most important focus is ...

Adherence !   Adherence !   Adherence !

matt      

P.S. I enjoyed the title of your thread, great idea.

Thank you. I have to stay on Harvoni for a total of 24 weeks so I have about 19 weeks left. The nice thing is that there are no side affects from Harvoni.

While on board the Harvoni Train yesterday an emergency stop was made at my doctors office. The doctors nurse wanted to tell me something and this is what she had to say "Congratulations! You virus is undetectable!" I wanted to cry so bad. I have been on Harvoni for just a little over a month and I'm undetectable.

God is so good!!
