Another thought occurred to me.  Years ago, some of the labs didn't test down to as low of copies as they do now.  Could it be that the 'error' in the test was caused by the original lab having the lower count test?  I know years ago, the viral load test only went down to like 50-100 copies and now they go down to 0-15 copies.   Just wondering.  Susan400

So you are not positive but you have Nash?

I've thought of this before Susan. I honestly think if you go to manicure places you should definitely bring your own tools. I used to go to one where you could buy your own stuff and they kept it in a plastic for you for when you went back. Still, I would worry they might go in my bag for a missing tool and use it on someone else. If I were to do it again today, I'd keep my own tools and even polish with me. Heck, the polish they use is goopy half the time anyway. :)

Hi
I am released to hear it is not hep c back again a little confused as you posted you had a viral load but very glad you seem to not have been reinfected after all.

Sorry you continue to have health problems I guess everyone will say work with your doctor to turn these NASH issues around.

Good luck
Lynn
