Some people just fluctuate a lot during treatment. I don't much, but I ahve read that it does not indicate a return of the virus.

Marty,
As copyman said, these numbers jump around. Mine went from ALT 22 to 165 after I started Vic and then came back down to the teens a few weeks later. Just monitor PCR and that is the true test!
Good luck to you!
