*SVR SVR SVR*

Woohoo!  Finally I get to start my own SVR thread!  Wow!  I made it!!  I've been reading everyone else's threads and wondering what I would get to write!  And unbelievably the lab got the results back to me in 4 days, must have been the right timing!  Truly, I am sooo happy I am somewhat delerious, I can't keep still, and I really am dancing!

For those don't know I was a Geno previous non responder to 24 weeks of SOC. I took part in a trial for a new polymerase inhibitor (R7128) in May 2008 and then continued on with 48 weeks of SOC.  I was UND at 4 weeks (RVR).

To those that do know me, thank you ALL sooo much for all our support, through the good times, the bad times, and the really really bad times.  This place is a great source of information and inspiration, I can't count the number of times that people here have picked me up off the floor. Thank you thank you thank you so much!!

Epi (doing the happy dance!)

Excellent News!!  

We sort of paced one another during treatment so I'm glad to see that we both made it to the finish line.

All the best

YAY what a great bit  of news Pip i AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!

And to even tell you before you were expecting the results well that is like double triple bonus isn't it?

We're really racking up the SVRs in here lately - if anyone doesn't understand why education of the disease and it's treatment is so important...they should just look to all the SVRs in here cause it's so obvious!!!!!!!!

YAY CONGRATULATIONS
