OMG - I can't freaking believe it - yep SVR

Hi all - I know it has been a long time since I've been on line but I truly believed the beast had returned - I was feeling pretty bad and it had been 5 months since I had my 2 mo post PCR which was clear and I knew I could not treat again due to the awful side effects and I just didn't want to know - but I finally gave in and tested and just found out I'm SVR. I had only treated for 13 weeks (am a 2b) and most of it was at very reduced doses - so it's pretty much a miracle - so for all of you out there that may have to cut it short and have little hope - read my journal - it’s been a hell of a ride but thanks to the awesome friends on this board - their persistence, determination, knowledge, patience, dedication and love - I have my life back!

HEY HERES TO THE KICK BUTT TEAM -how many are SVR? (Kittyface. Deb, Ladylori, Charm, Floridamouse, Susan, Wassup, Trish, Meicmommy, SF baygirl, Fuzzy etc) - Also special thanks to my buds Forseegood, Jmjm, Andiamo, pkin, goofy, nygirl, meiki, comeagain, and all the gang - love ya man :-)

I have been deeply touched by the stories of your suffering during treatment. You must have been the worst case I have heard of so far. You fought so hard and were so so brave. I cannot express how happy I feel that you reached SVR.

Congratulations!!!

Hugs, Marcia

WOW, that is such great news!!!!!!!  Now go ride those horses with a clear SVR mind.  It is a mud hole around here but I will toast (with my bottle of water) you when I get out there on my first ride of the season.

I REALLY am so very happy for you.   Denise

Hi!!  I've been wondering how you're doing!  

I myself also got the news of being SVR -- we're two short timers who beat the odds for sure...

I looked at your list and I can give you an update on other SVRs that I know of offhand:

LadyLauri
FuzzyDar
Medicmommy
Trish (too early to make it "official" but she's clear 3 months after stopping, which is an "unofficial" SVR!)

I'm soooooo very happy for you!!!  You suffered like no other here and I'm thrilled to know that it was not in vain!!  I just hope you continue to fully recover from your ordeal and are able to ride and do all the physical things you so enjoy again!!!!

Thanks for sharing your great news!!!

Your pal, pK

You two are amazing. This news is as special as it gets.

I just read that pK (G2) stopped tx after seven injections and SVR'ed!

Could you please pick my lottery tickets for me?

Hope you both feel better each and every day.

Best wishes.

I'm a relative newcomer to the forum so I was not familiar with your tx story.  I have just read your journal, and OMG!  Tipping my hat to you...  What a journey, and SVR!  Huge congratulations!

I am absolutely *thrilled* to hear you are SVR.  I worried so much about you while you were on treatment.  This is just terrific news and I'm SO happy that you NEVER have to go through that again.  I'm so proud of you.  Here's to your hubby too...for taking such good care of you through all that.  I wish you the loveliest of SVR days ahead!!!  Well-earned and much deserved.
