You might remember me
I stayed in the hospital for 17 days for hemolytic anemia due to ribavirin. I had to take prednisone for 2 months to keep the anemia away after I got out the hospital. I weaned off of it and now I am back on it because HGB dropped again. So basically I am living through prednisone right now. I had a total of 10 blood transfusions.
I was virus negative I month after I stopped medicine at 32 weeks. I was virus negative at 3 months. I just took a 6 months test yesterday. Please wish me look.
I have one question, Am I an early or late responder? I did peg and ribavirin for 2 weeks. After one week of peg and ribavirin alone I was virus positive. Incivek was added at 3 weeks. 4 weeks of taking triple therapy I was virus negative. Is this an early or late responder?
Well I am glad to be a little strong enough to be back on the board. I will let you know what my 6 month test shows.

Thanks everyone for the kind and encouraging remarks. I will be posting results Monday.
Ooo , so sorry to hear you are still not feeling well. I thinks that your chances of having your results back as UND are extremely good
Good question about EVR, I am in the same situation
Started with Riba and Pegasys, still positive at week 4, introduced Incivek and after 4 weeks of that I was UND
Still, going 48 weeks, completed 35, only 13 to go now but mainly at half dose
