Congratulations to you and your husband! This is great news!
I also have had false positives as well as false negatives. It is really hard when that happens. sometimes I think it is a result of having to have so many blood tests.
Again, very happy for both of you
I am glad you posted this topic! I think we tend to forget that humans and labs do make errors. Unfortunately it causes unnecessary stress but it is what it is. You did the right thing and had him retested.
On my 8 wk VL, probably the most important in starting tx on Vic, the lab techs did not take enough blood to run the test. I almost fell out of my chair. So I had to wait until wk 9 to have the test run. I was UND and Dr said he would use that as wk 8. I wasn't happy about it but it does happen.
So happy everything worked out for you two!
