test

[summer7799]

I can't remember what the test is called...but its a test that tells you how well you will respond to treatment. Has anyone had this test prior to treatment?

I had it done. And my results were CC. the nurse said that means i will respond extremely well to treatment. also got my biopsy results. Stage 2 fibrosis. Is that good or bad?

Its called the IL28B test.  By the time I found out that it was commercially available I had my 4 week PCR done and was UND.  At that point it didn't seem important.   However, if starting over, I'd definately have it done.
