So far...
OK so here's the rundown so far: day1; VL 3,910,000...TW2 VL:261,000...TW4 VL:391,000...(weird that it would spike like that, no?) And then TW6- two weeks after I started the Boce/placebo..VL: 60. That's six-zero. I just had TW8 blood done, so we'll see that in 2 more weeks. Kind of encouraging, no? I mean certainly not out of any woods yet, but it's good news for now. Oh, Hemoglobin @ 11.2. Tolerable. And the side effects are stabilizing (for now) and aside from being an insufferable azzhole, nothing too awful. Some people would argue that my personality hasn't changed much, but those individuals can go flog themselves.
from the looks of the mustache, we could maybe go with GreatBeard, lol!!
Good luck to all y'all....Boc sounds like the newest, next best thing...thanks for stepping up and participating in this trial that will benefit us all.

GoatBird? Should I take that personally? (I suppose it could have been GoatBoard . . . or BoatGord . . . )
Granite: only when done correctly. GoatBird: thanks. I probably am. It's academic, though. Izzy: My wife would argue that one. Rockette forlife: thank you, Mommy.
Looking good - that Boceprevir is magic.
Just to clarify, on December 20, 2008, you posted to Rocker that your starting viral load was 700,000 but in your post above, you say it was 3, 912, 000. Was the lower value based on your last PCR prior to day one or did you indicate a wrong number?

"I just started Boc trial here. First injection tonight. I'm stage one level one. VL 700K. 47 years old."
Looks like you're on your way with BoceBaby, whatever the number.
And I sure hope you've changed during treatment. G-od help us if not. :)

That's excellent news! We're almost exactly at the same place in this (I started 12/16). Obviously, you're getting the real thing. :)
Congratulations Ram!!!
