dog, those liver enzymes are a good sign.  --- When I had some routine bloodwork done a month or so after my first treatment my liver enzymes were spiked.  That was my first indication of a relapse so I am hopeful you have cleared.

Good to hear you're bouncing back so quickly after having such a hard time on trt.  Hope you see another UND in 4 weeks.  When was your last PCR done?

That is great news!  I know you had a very hard time with tx and had to stop early.  That UND must have you floating on air.  Keep us posted, these drugs kick some viral butt too so very good chance they did their job before kicking yours.

Hey Billy ,   thats great,  it has taken me at least 4 months to feel "normal"  I'm trying to walk more to get back my leg strength after being so sedentary for a few months.... and its working.. little by little, keep it up and you'll feel better,
I'm still on the AD's  
Wishing you the best and UND forever of course.
hugs, mary
