Is it 6 months or the equivilent of a number of weeks post tx? Does it matter? Regardless I am going this aft. as my last pcr was the end of treatment so I anxious to get any kind of news...well perferably good news!!!! Wish me luck :)

It would be 24 weeks since your last peg shot so I believe your doctor is correct but please check my math. Some might add another week and go 24 weeks past their last riba.

More importantly, all the best luck with your results !
