I can't remember if I congratulated you when you finished your 72 weeks (I am pretty dim lately). I am a member of the "not so fast" (in terms of viral response) club, also. Here's to you continued SVR! Brent

Thank you for your understanding, it means so much to me. I still hope to beat it someday. I am so glad that you are UND post tx, hope and pray it will stay this way forever. Your thoughtful courageous posts were inspiration to me. The best of luck to you, Zazza.

Thank you Zazza; reading your progress certainly helped; I'm so pleased for how you are doing and what a long voyage it has been for you; you are a real mentor :-)

Just a quick note to say hi! Hi Zazza, well I finally got my results, the virsus is still undectable, I am happy to hear that. The nurse called me with the results. I will see the doctor next week I guess he will tell me when I get tested again. I try to eat the right foods and drink alot of water. Yes today is a day of relief. all thanks to the lord. stay in contact. o.k. July makes 3 months I have been off teatment. Have a nice day! Perla

Congratulations! Time for a celebration... Hi Zazza, That is great news, I am so happy for you. Thanks for the words of encouragement. I am glad to say that my level of anxiety has gone down, due to me being prayful and letting go and letting God. I will write you Monday evening with my results. Have a great day!. Perla

Just a quick note to say hi! Hi Zazza, good to hear from you. No I did not get my results yet and it is driving me crazy. My doctor changed my appintment from the 3RD. of July to the 7Th. so hopefully I will know everything then, I hope I don't have to take more blood tests,. They told me that something went wrong processing the blood, I think she called it a failed run, so I am still waiting. It still shows pending results. How is everything with you? How did your test results come out? Thanks for staying in contact. Take care, Perla

Just a quick note to say hi! Thank you Zazza and well done on your test results Cathy77

Congratulations! Time for a celebration...

Congratulations, now you have a chance of more than 99% not to relapse. There is a good study clearly showing this! Talk to you soon...

Dear Zazza, great to read about your normal enzymes . That is a good sign indeed. I have shot 77 and it is getting a little bit harder to continue, but this will increase the chances for me, but I am still working about 45-50 hours a week. I decide from week to week now. It depends on the sides... Keep me informed about your PCR, my fingers are crossed. All the best, drofi

Hey Zazza: I posted my PCR results on the forum.

Just a quick note to say hi! Geesh not sure I can focus enough to do this tracker! ACCKKK hugs Deb

Thank you for everything! On friday I will have been off of my Interferon injection for 3 wks and 2 wks off of the riba pills. All in all I feel pretty good except for sporadic depressed and generally feeling low here and there. I will be taking a 4 wk post tx PCR I guess around June 9th or so. I will be devastated if it comes back positive; I mean I have seen that on this forum before. Right now I am not thinking or worrying about it at all. I know that the worrying will begin after I take the lab and have to wait for the results. You were UND at wk 15 so you really shouldn't worry. Basically once you are UND you stay that way throughout the course of tx. According to your profile you are finished tx right so this is your post tx PCR. Is it the first one?

You are in my thoughts and prayers good luck with your PCR in June. Hugs Elaine

You're in my thoughts all the time, but especially today. Hope all is well with you...Praying for a great PCR in June!

That is so good you are feeling better and better, and no more hair loss!! yeah! Actually it was my eot pcr that came back und, They were not going to do another one until 6 months post, but since i am moving out of state and losing my insurance i am asking for a 4 week pcr this week. I'll let you know how that one goes. Again congrats on your good news!

I know!!! 4 weeks and I'm impatient waiting for PCR's. My hemoglobin is going up, now at 11.6 so my energy is coming back! How have you been feeling?

Just a quick note to say hi! I had shot 72 last week and will continue some additional weeks. I have been <12 IU between week 16 and week 20 and am "familiar" with the sides now. From my point of view it is better to add some weeks as far as I can tolerate and pay the longer treatment. Best regards, drofi

Thank you for everything! You are so right Zazaa; and you are a warrior (72 wks)! Sometimes I wish I could delete some of things I have said but you can't. I am very sensitive and get my feelings hurt easily and I guess I am still suffering from untreated depression and because of my OCD I am very impulsive and react too quickly at times and always jump to the wrong conclusion. I was actually raised by my mother who instilled that in me. Are you done with your tx? You must be drained mentally and physically. I really appreciate your reply...you made my day!

Uh, care to explain... "Anyway I am taking them because I think they will help with my next round." Next Round Of What! tapping foot, waiting, jasper
