extremely interesting, especially the part of hbvdna intf alpha suppression, this is probably one of the reasons sequantial therapy works and pegintf mono doesnt
@calebz..I'll again check with fibroscan in September.
@stef2011..Thanks for the link. I saw in other thread that you are taking Mitake muchroom supplement. Do you know about Lingzhi muchroom?
i havent seen enough studies on this i prefer maitake only for now which is the most studied in vivo
There are studies saying that prolonged 96 weeks is safe and has response rate of almost 30% against 7% comparing to 48 week of interferon. I think if you can bear sides and high cost of pegasys just give yourself a chance and continue interferon.
no it is best to stop and restart it later on, she won t lose the effect of this 48weeks treatment if she restarts in 1-2years
Here is another paper on how add-on therapy is supposed to work. Very informative. Nucs rescue CD8 and interferon does the rest. Not sure if it has been posted here before.
