I believe there are some European studies that have shown geno 1's who RVR with a starting viral load of <400,000 IU/mL which is considered low are candidates for a shorter treatment duration and have acheived SVR.  I know you'd love to cut your treatment short with that RVR but if I recall your viral load was 4 million so you don't want to take any chances.

It's looks like this is going to be a one time deal for you, no do-overs necessary so take it to end.  It'll get tougher as time goes on but well worth it for a hepc free life and a healthy liver.
