Congrats on your undetected  EOT result, KPB, that`s fantastic!!  biggrin

I can understand why you`re ready to move on with your life now and leave all the worry of Hep C and treatment behind, but I agree with the others that your doctor really should repeat the viral load test at 12 weeks post tx.  That`s the recommended protocol and he should know that! 

Thanks for sharing your journey with us, I hope you`ll keep in touch! 

Wishing you all the best!

That's nuts! Tell him s/he they need to follow the AASLD testing guidelines. That's a RNA viral load at EOT +12. They owe it to you and you've earned the right to know. They didn't makes us wait that long back in the OLD days, lol! DEMAND IT!

Hey KPB,

Outstanding news buddy!! Man, you just made my day. I knew you'd do it too. It's nerve racking being the patient, but we're seeing these new protocols just slay one dragon after another. It's a great time to treat and I have little doubt that you're going to go on to SVR and leave this behind. Keep in touch, we'll be waiting to celebrate with you!! Good luck, fellow rod burner!!

Good morning,

I just returned from my EOT Doctor appointment,  my blood test has been returned as VL - UNDETECTED.

Doctor says: my status now is virus cleared,  next blood test is 08-01-2016, if UND at that time my status will be virus Cured

My new Doctor's orders for the next year are to:   (1) do not gain any weight ,  (2) do not drink Alcohol ,,,,,(simple ha)

ANYWAY, I will be turning the page and leaving my HEP C life behind, hopefully forever,  but....................

Before I do,  I want to tell everyone here that this web sight has been a wealth of information, a great stress reliever to comfort me in my many times of uncertainty, a voice of reason when my own voice was in panic.

Brain1412, I just seen your new post, and I do agree "it's a beautiful day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"  

Thank you everyone for being here,

goodbye,

KPB
