HI Sieb,

I agree with Tig, you have nothing to worry about there.  And your liver enzymes levels, ALT and AST, are looking great! 

You`re on track and the treatment is obviously working well, keep going and best of luck!  smile

Hi Sieb,

If you were on Ribavirin, you would see the RBC really drop. You're at the low end of normal, nothing to worry about. The ALT and AST are great. This is powerful stuff and how great it is to see people complete treatment with minimal side effects. But trust me, there's a lot going on inside you. You will see adjustments in these levels as you get adjusted to the drug regimen. Treat yourself right, eat well and drink 3-4 liters of water every day, without fail and this will hopefully go by quickly and of course, successfully!

Hi could someone please tell me if Harvoni has any effect on RBC? Just got my two week blood work results back with AST 16 and ALT 14 but RBC dropped a little to 4.19 (4.22-6.81) is this normal for Harvoni? Thanks.
