Probably as a relapser you should be doing 48 weeks minimum (I dont know but am assuming you are not a geno 1). Your liver enzymes look pretty good considering you have the disease = they are not yet out of line at all. You must be living a good, healthy liver lifestyle right now so keep it up!
You sure you relapsed? I read some of your old posts and some of the things you said that your doc said seemed a little bit 'off'. I think you also said you were heading to Duke. Have you had a viral load test in the last year? (since the 'relapse' pcr)
Wow, your numbers really do look pretty darn good! I'd kill for that platelet count. Whatever you're doing, keep it up.
yes iam a relapser as of aug this past year.. Iam geno 1A and i treated for 48 weeks, before tx my vl load was 2 million and something.my grade was 2 and stage 2. . and now i feel like I had a blessing poured upon me.. I didnt get viral load cause viral doesnt really mean anything unless we are treating what i understand in a class i took, i have educated myself alot but still have lots of questions and my dr is very formal and follows thru all the way.. Yeah one time in the past after relapse i started to go to Duke but dr recommend, wait and let see what blood work is doing.. so i did and now iam glad i did..Also what i have heard even if u relapsed, during tx we are giving our liver a rest basically.. Trust me guys iam all knew to this but i try hard to live healthy as possible and it was like a snap crackle pop in my life, just over nite cause i wanna get better and iam determined and yall guys are the best support team that i have admired here..I think yall for all imputs of anyones life..It takes alot to have people that are caring and know the disease.. Yall have a great day :) Sandy
How do you know you relapsed if you didn't have your VL done?
cause at 6weeks after tx i had viral done and it was like 1 million and something and ast and alt were high then..
