12 month post tx test

This week I go in for my 12 month post treatment test.  My 6 month was undetected and I was happily SVR.  Though just going into test again is freaking me out.  Anyone with any reassurances?  I know that the 6 month SVR is about 98 percent full proof, but just the act of testing again brings back alot of stressful memories.  Mar

I think some of us may have to accept that it's easier to go hang-gliding than to wait for PCR results.

Give yourself a break - you feel like most of us, a bundle of nerves and so be it.

It makes me kooky to think about it so I tell myself kooky things, like "embrace your fear" and swig another glass of grape juice.

Pro-active just mentioned on the "Organic" thread that his one year post PCR just came in and he's SVR. So we're on a roll. All the best.

Well I can tell you one thing - it NEVER really gets any easier, I still get nervous now two years later and I've heard from the other guys the same thing.

Of course the odds are like 99.999999% in your favor. I know that doesn't take away the anxiety but seriously I'd bet my last dollar (and I ain't got many) that you are totally over and done with this disease.......it's nothing but a distant memory now.

Congrats in advance and your certain continued SVR.
