4 week Test Back

Well I am not undetectable, but I started with viral load at 14,800,000 and now at 666,282.... Huge drop and I'm happy with that at this time!

a drop in hemoglobin is also a good sign for svr in the future.  be sure you are taking riba with a meal that has some fat. i even add a tablespoon of olive oil to the night dose as i cant eat while sleeping! also be sure u get some vitamin D as both these strategies boost absorbtion. keep up the good fight, sunshine.

Thanks everyone!

Babs, my hemoglobin is 12 but they are monitoring my WBC 1.7 and neutripolis (not sure if spelled correct) is 627, so another CBC test on the 18th. May be going to hematologist after that.

Overall I feel pretty good! Wed, Thurs, and Friday definitely my better days!

Congratulations on your success!
I think that's about a 1.5 log drop.  At that rate you would be about 33,000 after 8 weeks and 1,600 after 12 weeks, 80 after 16 weeks, and 4 after 20 weeks.
