Undetectable at Six Weeks of Treatment

I just took my 8th shot. Last week I received word that my VL at 6 weeks showed Undetectable. Great News!

This is my 2nd treatment - Genotype 1. My 1st treatment was shortened to 36 weeks due to sx. My doctor now is recommending 48 weeks for this treatment. Given that there was only 5 months betwwen the treatments, I feel like I have been at this treatment schedule forever (actually one and a half years) and I feel I am losing the ability to think straight and make the simpleast of decisions. BUT, the bottom line is "I thank God I am responding" and with the help and encouragement of fellow travellers on the forum, I will stick it out to the end of treatment.

As for my problems with thinking and remembering, my wife has been writing lists of things I need to do during the day and this helps quite alot. There is not enough that can be said for supportive spouses.

Once again, thanks to all for your advice and support.
