Hi Ww, congrats on your first `undetected` result!

Your lab results are looking great and this must be such a boost for you.  And a welcome reminder of why you`re going through this treatment. 

No need to worry about 1 missed pill, most people do that at some point in their treatment.  Just keep to your schedule and use a pill box or phone alarm if necessary to remind yourself!

Very pleased for you, you`re a true Warrior Wolf and you`re going to win this battle for sure!!

I messed up somehow. I forgot to take my pill for one day. I ended up with an extra when I thought I was done with 28 days. Yes, it is my 4th week lab. My side effects have been unique to me. It's hard to compare myself to others. I don't experience all the same things. I am breaking out with acne and having crazy dreams! Thanks, everyone for the encouragement and support. I have for more weeks to go.

Hey WW

Congrats on your four week (i think) lab test  results. Your treatment has nearly wiped out all of the virus in your blood, now its on to the other areas where the virus resides like the Liver and other organs. Keep totally compliant on your meds. and before you know it you will Hep-C free.

Hoping all the best in future lab results

It looks like you've got this well under control. Things will only get better from here. Hard to believe huh? Congratulations!!!
