Hi Casey,

There are some new meds coming out this year that look promising for many relapsers
( Geno 3's may be out of the loop yet though). Teleprevir and Boceprevir are their names and you can find lots of info here and if you google them.

Can you give a little more info on your previous tx? Were you a relapser or non-responder, genotype, biopsy results? Not to pry, just gives us a little more to go on to steer you to the best info for you.

It can be a little quiet around here on the weekends, but I want to bump this up for you.
Welcome in, BTW - Pam
