I'm 48 days off the full combo-tx -- meaning no riba and just a half dose of peg -- and yesterday I got tested again. The results won't be in for 2 weeks, give or take, but the LFTs (ALT & AST to be specific) were all normal! My WBCs are still low, due to taking a half dose of peg, but the RBC counts are coming back up ... I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will test undetectable and that will be that.

I understand that if we relapse we do so within several weeks of stopping tx. Anyone have any data on that?

Thanks,

Scott
