Long term sustained HCV responder question re: PCR
I was treated in 2001-2002 for hepatits c. 1a. Undetectable at 4 weeks into tax. SR at 6,12,18 months and still SR 2 years after ending year long treatment.
My question in this... Because PCR goes lower now, do I need to retest? Or can I feel confident the follow up I had was sufficient?
Please be gentle with your response, as I have always had issues with health anxiety. I would like to know I can put this issue to bed, and continue enjoying a healthy happy life. I was fine until I read an article about the lower PCR.
Thank you in advance for your guidance. What a wonderful site.
