SVR on Victrelis
Hello,
I'm posting in this forum and in social too!
I just thought I would come back and post my final results. I was treatment naive and started Victrelis. I had a less than stellar response for the lead in and wasn't undetected by the date I needed to be and ended up having to do 48 weeks with all drugs up until the very end (didn't have a 1 log drop initially).
I ended my treatment on December 30th and just received my final lab results that the virus is undetected still. I am officially SVR after 6 months.
I hope this gives someone else courage and hope to finish the treatment even when your initial results are less than great. :)

I'm not SVR anything yet. Only HCV RNA - not detected after 8 weeks from beginning treatment. Still have at least 17 weeks to go of treatment. My genotype is 1b.
This is wonderful news. Congratulations! Enjoy your new Hep C free life. : )
PS: Glad you let us know. I think it helps all of us when we hear that another one of us has attained SVR.

Thanks for the post I have had perfect response with Victrelis so far and am HCV RNA Not Detected after 8 weeks. So no matter what now I'll be hopeful. It is important to get reports like this so thanks again.
This is such great news and made more special by the fact that even after a rocky start you did it and the end result is just wonderful! Thanks for posting and I wish you the very best.
