Although you may feel more anxious, waiting a few weeks longer will  make no difference in the eventual outcome at all.

  Yes, my Doctor mentioned that to me also.
Hey, it's a good thing, because so much evolution is taking place right now, in terms of Hep C Treatment, so your Doctors may gain some helpful knowledge, that may benefit your Treatment.
  What did you decide on, Teleprivir, or Boceprevir?
If you decided on the Teleprivir, you could use the extra time, to figure out and plan your 20 grams of fat, 3 times a day menu. You can stock your cubboards, etc. You wont feel like shopping so much, the first few weeks on tx.
  Also, you can stock up on other things, such as laundry soap that is fragrance free, and mild soap for your skin, and some soothing powder for your bum :)
