sorry for the misprint.

all tests came back normal, except for the blood Total protein and the urea.

Total Protein was a bit high, at 8.5g.  Normal range is upto 8g.  It is composed of albumin and globulin, though they don't know w hich one is high yet.

Urea was a bit low, though it is of negligible importance.  

Has anybody else had high protein due to high globulin (as albumin high is pretty much impossible to get)

why are you starting to worry about protein now. why not get your pcr test so you can go and enjoy life with your family. hopefully negative. when i tx and I SVR if god spares then i will move on with my life. it has been a year this month since i found out i had HCV and it has consumed so much of my time. i walked around in a daze for the 1st few months. no offense for everyone here but i would not come here anymore, i would want to enjoy my "new lease" on life. out of all the people that visit here i feel you need to get that pcr more then anyone because of the way you obsess about things. When do you plan on getting it? best of luck

Copy - I come here and I'm SVR.

Because I have post side effects.. and you know --- maybe I can help someone who was in my shoes a year ago.

Scared and having no idea what to do or where to go.

Cause that sucks.
