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.
Today is the last day of week 12, I did some tests, and got these results:
WBC: 3.2 Normal is (3.5 - 11)
RBC: 3.22 Normal is (3.8 - 5.8)
HGB: 10.3 Normal is (11 - 16.5)
I did a qualitative test and hopefully I'll read the word "UND" on next sunday (This will be the best birthday gift).
The bad news:
I was asking the doctor about something and when I came home I realized that I used the wrong words and I was misunderstood.. Uh Oh!! This is killing me and I can't stop thinking about it :(

No, not incivik, Just IFN and RIBA. Genotype 4, 48 weeks.
I'm feeling GREAT and I don't know how is this!!
For example, today I went to the hospital to do CBC and TSH tests and took some papers with me to do the Qualitative test in another hospital (very far), then back to first hopital to get the CBC results then back home. So I was walking all the day, going up and downstairs (I don't love elevators).
@sopain, You've finished incivik, right?
People here say they feel much better after incivik, maybe it's taking some time in your case, you see how am I feeling, so everybody is really different.
But it'll happen with the procrit.
Think of it like this: You was climbing a mountain with heavy bags on your shoulders and now you threw these bags and found someone (procrit) to help you continue climbing.
Get well soon :)
WBC: 2.8 (3.4 - 10.5)
RBC: 3.57 (4.13 - 5.63)
HGB: 11.5 (12.9 - 16.9)
HCV Viral Load: UND

@Dilly, Thank you!
I wish you good luck with your trial.
@sopain, I don't know what to say, I've read your post few days ago and it was about 8.2 or 8.3, and many people here say that treatment should be stopped if you go below 8.5
You should think about this with your doctor and if you (and your liver) can wait for the interferon-free drugs, they'll be really better than IFN.
@Sid, thanks alot.
I was just asking a question and the doctor thought I was confused about milli and micro (I'm an engineering student, I know units from yocto through yotta).
I think what I did is called 'RIBA Rage' and I realized this at home :(
Pharaoah!!!!!! You will be undie. Not hopefully, silly!!! lol :)~~~~~~

Jibi, it's on sunday, the same day of the results.

Good luck with you bloodwork :)
