Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the good thoughts. I definitely believe positive thoughts bring positive energy.

John, congrats on 1 year EOT! In 5 years, this disease will be HISTORY!

Hi Chic,

Your post made me realize that I'm one year EOT today. Congratulations for being through with tx! SVR will be in your near future. Mallani is absolutely correct that waiting for better medications and avoiding Interferon was the way to go.

I'm going to throw my two woots in so Woot, Woot!!!! party.gif

Hi Chic,

I remember your 1st post a year ago when your doctor was trying to get you to go on Interferon.

With TT at IL28B, you were very wise to wait.

Now you're getting the results you deserve.

It's a great example of why patients should be educated about this disease, and be their own advocates. Cheers, and well done.

Hey Chic,

I'll say it, WOOT! Congratulations, I know you're happy to be done. This has been a good ride for so many, I'm sure you'll do just fine on your test. Optimism is always the best approach. Time to rest and recover, you've earned it! Let us know the results when you get them. Good luck!

My Harvoni train ride has come to an end. Last pill was this morning! 8 week labs on Monday. It's going to be a second confirmatory NORMAL. I just know it is. (saving the #WOOT for next week when I actually have results) biggrin
