Wishing the best for you!
Its not the end all. You've given your liver a break, and new treatments are becoming availiable all the time.
I start week 6 of solv/riba tomorrow, null responder to soc in 2009.
I don't know whether this tx will work for me but truly, not worried about it. I'm grateful for a chance to attempt to clear without interferon.

Thanks for the encouragement. I wish my doctor had taken a test after the 7 week test so I would have known if I hit "undetectable" a some time during the last 5 weeks of treatment. I know there is more after this if treatment fails. I found out I have HCV in Oct 1994 and have been living with this burden for a very very long time. I just want my life back.

All I can say is they are seeing late responders to this combo attaing SVR so keep faith.
I am on week 8 of the same treatment. Initially I was told I had to be less than 15 by week four but lat time I was at the clinic they said they are now letting everyone continue.
Being nervous is only human but try to put it out of your mind as you know it serves no purpose. You were most likely already undie weeks ago. So as I do and just get on with things. What is, is.
Big hugsss

attaing ..lol attain! :)

Wishing you the best of luck.....Less than 15 is virtually undetected. I'm sure you'll be fine,.

. Waiting is the worst...

Thanks Trissa and WarriorGal, This waiting is hard. I have been making it worse by checking my email over and over to see if my Labcorp notice came yet. Nope. Nothing. I was tested Thursday and I have a follow up appointment tomorrow. I hope the results are there before the appointment. I am toying with the idea of calling Tara to see if the results are in before I go. If they are not I may postpone until they come in. I hate the thought of freaking out in the office if the news is bad. Last time treatment failed I lost it in public.

OneWonders:

I have driven myself absolutely INSANE (including my husband) after having this for 25 years....

I now am on SOV/Riba and was VL 12 at week 4. I have to be on for 24 weeks (geno 3a).

I did tx 2 times...1 time plain inf and 2nd time INF/Riba....Never finished full tx in past. This SOVALDI stuff is FANTASTIC and trying to let go of stress takes burden off your liver, plus I had blood work done every week for 10 weeks so far,and each time I watched my liver enzymes go down to NORMAL RANGE and STAY there - for me that is a miracle in itself.
Other things have improved also you might not be noticing,
like going to the bathroom. NOT waking up with a mild fever daily - I could go and on.

I try to put myself in God's hands, but I keep taking it back.
I worry all the time too....
Next I will worry in a year that it came back - This disease does a number on our brains/emotions....
God Bless

I'm anxious with you, waiting for your results.

I use Quest. They said VL taken on Monday should be in on Thurs or Fri.
This Monday, still no result, so Dr office called them 2x to get it.
I'm on S&R, 6th week. 4week VL still detectable. Not sure they'll have me continue tx, also had to drop riba to 600mg.

onewonders, my test at the end of 4 weeks of treatment said Undetected - and then it said under 15IU/ml. So the IU/ml is anywhere under that amount. They don't detect any virus if it's under that. So you were Undetected. At least that's the way I understand it.
