Congrats!!!!!!

Sofosbuvir and ledipasvir correct?

I just finished 48 weeks of Sofosbuvir + Ribavirin. Minimal side effects early on then none after week 20 or so. I will be tested monthly to see if I relapse. I hope not to infect my donor liver with hep C.

Enjoy life free of hep C! Got to feel real good!

@ Hector...I was told that the chance of relapse after SVR24 is only about 1%....so YOU my friend are good to go :-)

Dee...aren't you a geno2 or 3? Heard there's a really good trial coming in the next month or two. I'll try to find out what pharma AND an excellent one in December for geno 1's. Going to find out more info....

I was undetected about 2 weeks after tx (maybe it was a week). Then the trial was blinded until after your SVR 24. However...if you were still undetected after SVR12, then you were asked to come back for the 24 week blood work. If you'd relapsed at 12 weeks, then you would have been asked to come back for a re-check. It was a good way of knowing where you stood, without being actually told.

On my SVR24 blood work I was told that I was now CURED!!!
