3 month post tx test results

[carolhab]

Hi - have not posted for awhile, but just got my 3 month tests back.  I am(was?)  1a, about 3 mill viral load, on 48 wk trial of interferen and either viramidine/riba.  Still having sides, mostly fatigue and brainfog/depression, but slowly improving.  This test was done by an outside doctor, because it is not part of the protocal of the trial

HCV load bDNA   result <615
log10  RNA      result <2.79

along with a note saying my viral load is normal  

I assume this is very good news, but need opinions..  also, does anyone know the chances of being permanently clear, when 3 months out we are clear?  I am so cynical and don't want to get my hopes up, it's hard for me to accept good news!  Makes me realize how hard this struggle is, living with this for so long (for me, about 20 years) and the toll it takes on all of us..
thanks
Carol

Hey Congratulations on 3 month clear!  Looks like you are out of the woods and can rest easier these days.  Yep,,,the 615 PCR to me is still a definite,,,,if you would have not cleared and had say even a very low viral load when finishing,,,,that would have multiplied big time by your 3rd month. Best Wishes!

If you're clear three months after treatment, I think your odds for SVR are really excellent. Congratulations! Wow!
