[epiphiny]

Woohoo!!!  That is SUCH great news indeed!  Congratulations!!!  I doing a special happy dance for you!  Epi xxxxx

[Bill1028]

Fantastic news!  Maybe it was some residual **** in there as some else suggested.

[Magnum]

Great!!! About time! Don't break out the champagne yet until the liver heals. Have a drink for me as well...

Magnum

[GreatBird]

Oh Epi, thanks for the happy dance. :)

Bill1028, residual schmutz it was, I think.

Magnum, thanks. Will wait until the end of all this and then definitely will break out a very fine micro-brewed beer, which is what I miss the most.

[Tippyclubb]

Oh this is wonderful news.  Now this mean you still have a chance to get into the 6 month arm?  Not sure how they work that with the Boce trial.  

All of your worrying paid off!

[meakea]

The UNDIE DANCE is underway...  Congrats!

[Rangle]

[can-do-man]

First a big congrats, So you could have very easy been und at week 8 if the pcr had been on sch.  I'm in the relapser so not sure how yours work but curious does it work out better for you to get the und after week 8 or does it matter?

Wishing you the best

[GreatBird]

Tippyclubb--I'm going to tell my DH what you said about worrying paying off. ;)  I don't think I qualify for the six month arm because I had to be UND at 8 weeks and I wasn't. Or, if I was, there's no way to prove it.

meakea--does that mean I should be happy dancing in my undies? LOL

Rangle, Ameliafufu, sunshine585, rita863, justme53, comagain, AnotherJourney, kitkat14, charm2, lalapple, fretboard--thank you!! The group support here is amazing and it has really helped (and will continue to) keep me going.

annieCinMD--my fingers are crossed for your good results tomorrow.

Rockerforlife--thanks for the song. My daughter and I used to sing that with a slight change in lyrics . . . . "i can see clearly now my brain is gone . . . "

can-do--I could have been UND at 8, or maybe not. Not clear how they're going to handle that. With UND at 8 there's a chance I would only do six months instead of the full 48 weeks. There are better odds for SVR going the full 48, but more to recover from as well.

[Fathom500]

Oops looks like I came late to the party but just wanted to say:

Yippie!! Wooho!! Congratulations!!

Fathom

[IAmTheWalrus]

Terrific news! I suppose you will be treating for 48 rather than 72 weeks. Great news!

[Rockerforlife]

Looks like they should give you the option to choose the arm to be in ...because it wasnt your fault you werent tested at week 8....BTW....if they did give you the option....i know you would go the 48....I WOULD

[apache1]

Awesome !
On your way to SVR

apache

[willing]

yay! kinda like the three bears, 7.2 a bit too soon, 9.2 a bit late. You probably went und right on the morning of w8.....congratulations!

[Trinity4]

Way to go GB.  Keep up the good work.
Trin

[mikesimon]

Congratulations on your great news!
Be well,
Mike

[Rosebud41]

I'm always late to the party.

But, I guess a UDN party goes on, and on, and on!!!

I'm so happy to hear of your wonderful report...


Rosebud

[portann]

Congratulations on this great news!

All the best and wishing you minimal sides in the weeks ahead,

Port

[Kathy73]

Congratulations...you just made my day! May your day be happy and bright!

[nygirl7]

Hey GIRL can I say it now?  TOLD YOU SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   :)

Great great news, about time and well deserved!

[JTRiver]

Great News!! Hope SVR is right around the corner!

[GreatBird]

Fathom500--not late! This party's going to keep going.

IamTheWalrus--I'm assuming the tx will go 48 weeks. It's a clinical trial and they don't go longer, and since clearance was before 12 weeks, I don't think it would be suggested anyway.

Rocker--28 weeks would be tempting. :)

apache1, Trin, mikesimon, Rosebud41--Thanks!

willing--that makes me Goldilocks (you saw my picture, huh)

portann--let us both have minimal sides

Kathy72--aw, thanks

nygirl7--you were RIGHT. And I'm so glad!

JTRiver--it can't get here soon enough. But . . . one day at a time is my new mantra.

[virgocharm]

big congrats bird. another one rocks the blues. keep it up

[kciav]

Wonderful!
Very happy to hear your good news!

[giddyup]
