Last shot this Friday, decided to end tx in 24 weeks

[scruples]

Dear All

After a long discussion with my two docs, finally i have decided to end my tx at 24 weeks and pray to God for SVR.
I was geno 3, dx in 2002, tx in 2008 , VL at start of tx 272,200 iu/ml, U/s & Biopsy showed no significant demage to liver, was on standard interferone ( Non-peg) thrice a week + 1200 mg riba daily ( weight was 82kg at start of tx).

problem started when my doc disserviced me by not checking PCR at week 4 and 12 , my first qualitative PCR done at week 16 which shows UND. I had very manageable infact very low sx throughout the tx untill week 18-19, after that situation becoming really bad, now in week 23 & 24 after shot i feel like i am hit by a truck, i fell so COLD that i cant even sleep at nights , hair loss almost 40-50%, constant cramps etc, nails somewhat feeling yellow ( for the first time in life, never had before or during tx).

After disusiing with many people on this forum, now i with consultation of my doc ( who always insisted on 24 week tx) decided to end my tx this friday. Pls tell me what my current condition predict??? is my disease returning ????  

Any suggestions are welcomed

Best of luck to you and hope the UND status goes on to SVR.

i think you have a good chance at SVR but it would have been reassuring to have a 4 week pcr or at least a 12 week !! are you in another country? That kind of care would not be acceptable here in the USA. Best of luck
