I didn't want to be a negative factor for any newbies, but Kat knocked some sense in my head. She does have a way of cutting past the BS.

I finished the triple tx last week. I was undetectable at 4 weeks. 12 week VL came back at 286. Incivek rep says I have an 18% of clearing at this point. Will do a CBC every week and check VL again in 4 weeks.

Cannot do a clinical trial or transplant because of active cancer. Doctor doesn't know that liver will last 3 years until new drugs come on market.

We don't always get good news, but that is life. Even if tx fails I am not giving up. And I might be one of the 18%.

Thanks for listening. I can say things here that I can't talk about in person. You are all dear to me, Nancy

" Nancy-
I appreciate the sentiment. There's nothing negative about presenting the truth. Knowledge and is empowering and anyone who disagrees is ignorant. I'd like to see more honesty on this forum.

I was so sorry to hear about your VL. Sadly, the odds are not in your favor. I truly hope it works out; I know you had a rough go of it.

You're one hell of woman imho; certainly one of my favorites here.

Love...kat "
