STILL UND 4 weeks post-TX

Hi everyone,

just wanted to pop in and let you know I'm still UND almost 4 weeks after the 72nd injection.

I'm cautiously optimistic as I've read that if you're UND after a month chances of permanent SVR are increased.

Blood Levels shot back up to normal with a vengeance,  RBC from 10.4 to 15.9 and WBC from 2.7 to 5.4.  This is astonishing!  I'm still VERY weak but Dr. says that could be due to the toxins leaving the body.

The only glitch other than that is amylase and lipase both rose dramatically,amylase from 88 to 134 and lipase from 40 to 101.

Dr. says he wants to keep an eye on that.  Anyone have an idea of what that indicates?  I researched and it  seems it's pancreas related.

hugs all around!

Zazza,

Alt and ASt are 18 and 17.  Everything else is back to normal except amylase and lipase went up dramatically and now hgB, which rose from 10.4 to 15.9 is too HIGH!

But I feel wonderful compared to the ordeal of the past 18 months!  Haven't you gotten your post-TX labs yet?

Pigeon, Meki.
Awwwwwww.  you guys are the BEST!   :-)

**** sparrow,
I heard about the 4 week window, too.  Actually, the labs I'm reporting were done 3 weeks and 3 days after the last injection so I hope to he!! that doesn't mean a thing!
I'm lucky that my Dr. has written a script for monthly labs to continue until 6 months so if anything changes I'll know immediately if not sooner.

How are you doing?.

Hawk,
I'm so grateful.  Still a bit nervous about the next couple of months but relieved to be off the meds.  What's up with you?

rita, hotnick,

Thanks for your good wishes and BOL in your TX, too.

That is the best news I've heard all day.  I know how difficult tx was for you, and if anybody deserves SVR, it's you for your heroism.  Congratulations!  Mazel tov!  A votre sante and all other best wishes in every language.

Oh my God, Wyntre, I am so happy to hear this! It really warms my heart! Now just keep the good news coming!

Did you get your AST and ALT also? That's all I've got to go by so far, so I am trying to wring the most out of these figures. Tell me yours, please!
