there is a lot of stuff going on in the last year or so, when you say non responder do you mean you didnt make the log drop or never cleared or relapsed? I'm going through a 72 wk tx cause I relapsed, but for non responders concenses interferon and interfergon is the FDA standard now, but new stuff is coming out, but not much for non responders, good luck, PS both tx's I mentioned are injected 3 times a week, but talk to your
dr. cause I don't know how soon you need to get something going. good luck let me know what happens.

Dark urine (morning or daytime)? Can mean something or nothing,it can mean you are slightly dehydrated, some meds turn it all different colors, have a urine test done and put your mind at ease.
