See the 'News Stories and Other Posts' from 6/1. There ws mention of a drug called 'Alinia' from Romark. Maybe there is some info there. I think Forseegood made reference to it.
Susan,,,,I honestly don't know how you have endured the tx as many times as you have already and keep going! And sane on top of it! I know if it was me,,,,one more viral count to reassure what it is and if still registering a count,,,,I would give it a break for awhile just to recoup your own health. You are such a determined,,,focused person though,,,,I know this will be a hard decision for you! You know,,,,we all will support any decision you make!
Susan I am so sorry and lost for words. Being a pro treatment kinda guy, in your case I would wait for better meds.
Know you are in my prayers, let us know what you decide.

Susan-- I wish you the best of luck with your decision. I would definitely contact the study director and express my concerns regarding chronic constipation, and see what they say before dismissing the thought. FLguy mentioned a previous thread on this subject; I remember it also but can
Your attenmpts at treatment with the current drugs available have just not led to a successful outcome. I would certainly vote for your quitting and giving your body a well needed break for awhile. At this point, even if you do tolerate treatment, it just can't be doing your body well. As for this new experimental drug, I would research very thoroghly before I jumped in. I truly think you need a break. Surely you have helped your liver with all you have done.
My sincerest regards, Kathy
one more PCR, but since you are not in shape to do a yr from a negative, maybe forgoing the test will be best. You did respond to this last tx, better than I have seen you post before, what a shame that this strain has mutated to such a resistant level!
keep in thouch mith Miles, since he and you seem to be head to head in number of tx tried. take care the best you can.
