Just a quick update

G'Day!
I'd like to share with you the good news that I am still undetected 8 months after EOT.
You know, that stopping/reducing/increasing triple therapy of mine.
My doc says I shoud consider myself cured and I do, or sort of.
But I will be vigilant forever, heard way too many relapses (true relapses, not reinfections) after one, two, even four years of being und to feel completely safe. It is rare, but happens.

On the other hand, I can see many new drugs, many new therapies and hopefully this won't be a deadly disease anymore.
Good luck and good health to averybody

Thanks!
Yes it has been a long jurney and a hard battle to fight. I feel much better now, GGT 42 - they were close to 400 when I started- and platelet still 120 -were 42 at the EOT-, other results normal; air regrowing, joints still aching but the Rheumatlogist says is just a mild osteoarthritis in the knees and a trochanteric bursitis for the hips, doing some exercises for that.
No autoimmune diseases so far.
I feel lucky.
Thank you and best to you both

Congratulations!  Hard to get used to "CURED".  Just a few years ago, there was no so many here being able to say that. With these new drugs, more and more of us can claim use of that word.  Best to you.

Hi there, congratulations!!1 Yes you are cured. I felt the same way you did that every year I would need to be checked.  My hepatologist just told me they are now considering people cured EOT 3 months!  So, he said I was cured
This is such good news!
Thank you so much for coming back to share.  How are you feeling?
Take Care, Dee
