Harvoni 4th week blood results

[Diane1186]

Yesterday I got my results.  Both AST and ALT are normal.  I have not had normal levels for over 25 years.  Regarding my viral load........UNDETECTABLE.  WhoooHoooo.  A great way to start the new year.  I have to curb my enthusiasm since I was also undetecable on Incevik at week 6 and relapsed only one month after finishing my 36 week course.  I will keep a positive outlook.

I hope everyone is doing well.  Happy New Year

Thanks!  And Happy New Year.   Are you taking Harvoni?  If so, when did you start?

[Diane1186]

How many weeks have you been on Harvoni?

[Diane1186]

I know they will be great!

[Diane1186]

Thanks Randy.  Every step to the finish line!

I started on Nov 9th.  So,  8 wks  
I am over 1/2 way through.   will be done on Jan 31.
Yay  Harvoni, I'm doing great.   I am a little worried that I should be doing the Harvoni for 6 months instead of 3.  But 3 months is what I am prescribed.  How about you?

[Diane1186]

I will be on Harvoni for 12 weeks.  Hopefully will maintain my undetecable status.  Have you had your blood checked?  If so, how were the results?

[Diane1186]

Hi,

Did you get your results back?  Hope they were good.

Hugs,

Diane

[cakes8267]

yes, I got blood checked at 3 wks and 4 wks, undectable!

[AugustineMama]

Yay, yay, yay. So glad to see good news

[Diane1186]

Great news!  

[Diane1186]

That's great news.  It feels great to be on the way to a cure.  You only have a few more weeks to go.  

[Diane1186]

Thanks.  It is exciting.

Taking Harvoni as well. Started on Dec 8. I asked about blood tests and he said that since everyone goes undetected by EOT the only blood test I need is  12 weeks after Im done.
I'm curious as heck though especailly after seeing your post

Interesting, I started Harvoni Dec 9th and was told  the exact samething. I guess both of our Doctors are looking out for the insurance companies.  Although it makes sense.  I will get a normal lab done next week to check other parameters, just not the viral load test.  I'm actually considering getting the pcr test a month after EOT instead of right after treatment.

I should also mention that I did get 4 wk labs back & still carrying VL of 550. At first, I went into panic. Then some very wonderful folks on here, data collector at sp pharma, said " don't worry be happy" this happens frequently & my VL did drop from 9,500,000 to 550... I'd say that's a miracle :-) having another PCR on 19th (7 wk mark) & hope to see the rest of those viral buggers gone...
Prayerful, hopeful & blessed

Hi Randy,
Back on the community.  Sorry to hear your 4th week BW was not undetectable.  Did you get your results from the BW you had on the 19th?  Hang in there,
