AIH Negative! Thank God

Hi everyone!  No question just wanted to let you know that I tested Negative to AutoImmune Hep.  Whewww...I wasn't sweating that one out.  (I've only been calling for a week and a half).  Also found out my IL28B was "Heterozygous T/C in the IL28 gene".  Another whewwww...I thought for sure I was TT.  At any rate, now I can get my Hep A & B vaccinations.

I know this hasn't been a good day for a lot of people on this forum, but thought some good news may help.

Have a great evening everyone

Jules

Thanks everyone!  I was really nervous about this test.

Candy....I am still on the back burner because of iron overload.  It could be anywhere from 3 to 6 months before I can start.
