[Rockerforlife]

The hepatitis virus is not in my body anymore,i am UNDECTABLE,...here are some numbers for those wh are interested

Day 1 VL=20,600,000--------RIBA /PEG
Wk 2  VL=      54,500--------RIBA/PEG
Wk 4  VL=        6,150--------RIBA/PEG
Wk 6  VL= UNDETECTED--RIBA/PEG/BOC
Wk 8  VL= UNDETECTED-  RIBA/PEG/BOC

I can't help thinking that  Boceprevir may be first to market now. Why would FDA approve Telepivar with its "rash", when there is an equivalent drug in the pipeline that seems to not make life much worse for those on treatment?

These stats are very good news.

Thank you pjhhep

[pjhep80]

ahhh congrats that is awesome news...

[Rockerforlife]

Its randomiized before the trials are started..the big shots know what arm im in even before i start...im geno 1a..i think 1b is the hardest to cure...

The trials are all for geno 1 types..including 1b...

so can you imagine the SVR or the easy geno types....like 2 and 3....looks like we will all beat this monster soon...there is hope

[Rockerforlife]

good video...so i guess i have t play the wating game now,ive got my 2/4/6 and 8 week PCR tests over with..i do have one more at week 12...but im already UD...so it dont matter about week 12...the next milestone date for me now is the 36th week...this one determines what arm i am in and i will be unblinded...so i have 24 weeks of steady BOC/PEG/RIBA taking...with 4 weeks blood tests in between...i guess there is a chance of mutation or a viral breaktru   so you guys may not see me for 24 weeks...LOL


I guess your all saying....there is s aGod

[merryBe]

rock on oh hard one!!!

so how do they decide which Arm you are in...is it random or by genotype?

what genotype are you again?

and what SVR of 86% are they talking about...is this for 1a's or a general average for all types?

Great News, Congratulations

[can-do-man]

big mac and large fries

[Rockerforlife]

so did you eat a whole turkey before you screening?

[can-do-man]

nothing here about fasting first, either for screening or any further cbc's

[Rockerforlife]

you are very lucky to be in this trial...only about 595 people worldwide were accepted

[Rockerforlife]

i was told to fast the nite before my screening...no food after 12 midnite ...and no breakfast...nothing...only water ..no coffe or tea....my appt was 8 am...important to not eat food...it may screw up the test

[roscoe1]

congrats!!!!! Hey, I have an appt for boce naive trial, should I fast for possible blood work? I should have asked I was just to excited about getting the appt. Don't know what to expect. Congrats again! roscoe1

[Rockerforlife]

No problem...speaking of rashes...my injection sites on my tummy from the PEG itch at nite when i sleep....i just slather organic virgin coconut oil on thr red spots and it does help big time

[lalapple]
