Hepatitis C Support Group
Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is spread by blood-to-blood contact with an infected person's blood. Many people with HCV infection have no symptoms and are unaware of the need to seek treatment. Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.
On the 3rd wk of Solv/Oly/Riva my Ast/Alt went down to normal and all other blood work normalized anyway now on my 7th week blood work showing that my Alt/Ast are going back up all other blood work still normal still waiting for my Viral load test should be in in several days.. I kinda knew that something was going on due to my urine returning to a tea like color not as bad as before but when first started tx it had went to a clear yellow I was so happy but now its returning to that dark heavy consistency.... has anyone been thru these ups and downs and came out undie? very curious thanks guys.. love, peace and health to you all.. Happy 4th Let us be Free of this Dragon!!!!!!!! please ;)
I have had crashing HGB due to riba, they lowered my dose.
I hope you can wait to get explanations from your doctor. Labs go up & down, I wouldn't be concerned unless the doctor thinks its significant.
Hoping for good news & encourage with your VL test.
Very few have been on these tx long enough yet to have long term results
Also, have checked postings I asked about urine looking cloudy and "spots in it" - so that was mid in the 12 week range.....back to normal again......
Yes, check with Doc and put your mind at ease......I also didn't know I had an infected dental implant and maybe my infection affected things, I have no idea......
I am still in for the full 24 weeks of SOV/Riba, but Doc said not to worry, so i am trying NOT to....
It can make you a basket case - believe me, I know that!!
Praying for you....
Do you have a sheet that says when to call and when not to call doc?
I was given a sheet like that explaining things.
I agree with Trissa - we do worry ourselves quite a bit........
