ANOTHER DRAGON BITES THE DUST

by DRAGON SLAYER, Oct 29, 2004 12:00AM
Hey Guys,

Just received my post 6 months PCR results. THE DRAGON IS DEAD & BURIED, as of yesterday. I'm so happy that I can JUMP, especially after all the difficulties I have encountered in the last few months. I was 2B treated for 26 wks with PIG/RIBA combo.
I wish a speedy SVR for all my bros & sis on this forum & I certainly can't underestimate the importance this place has on our recovery. Thanx to all.......

Good luck to all
PKid,
Ben

Welcome aboard!  Great news again.  It seems many folks are getting better than expected results from tx.  Is anyone aware of any data on the LATEST actual cure rate for genotypes 1, 2, etc.?  I am familiar with the data from about 2 years ago.  The success rate seems higher to me.

So So happy for you. It must be such a relief. Things should only get better and better now. Your family must be very relieved that they can stop worrying about this now too. I hope to be on the same track after my 72 weeks (I'm only on 44 now, so I just take it day by day now. Go out and LIVE!!!!!!! Your friend, Judi
