SVR!!! SVR!!! SVR!!!!

by granitekonig, Nov 06, 2009 02:51PM
Hello everyone. I just had my six month post treatment test. No sign of hep at all with very sensitive testing. I can't tell you how good I feel.

For everyone treating...KEEP YOUR CHIN UP!

- Genotype 3 - Diagnosed a year ago - born with Hep (never used a needle or had a transfusion and my Mom had it)
- RVR at 4 weeks
- Took the same Riba dose as Genotype 1 because I didn't trust my doctor.
- No major side effects other than fatique and body aches/stiffness
- Quit drinking until I became RVR and then drank sparingly during treatment. I do not condone drinking AT ALL during treatment for anyone. That was just my personal choice.

Good luck to everyone and thank you to those who helped with their wisdom and compassion.
