Well just got a call from nurse goodbody with blood work. Started with a vl of 500,000 it is now less than 50 in 4 wk of tx so I guess it's working. Next draw is at 12 weeks. Hopefully it will be undect. Peace people.
Oh, I see your doc. works the same as mine re. VL - 4 weeks and 12 weeks and that\'s it. Fine with me! My VL in December was 3,000,000, so I am anxious (but not stressed) to find out my results from Tuesday\'s labs - which I will get next week. I\'m just rollin\' with it - what else can ya do? I am a realist. It will work or it won\'t; ain\'t nuthin\' can be done to change that. Just grateful my insurance paid for Sovaldi/Olysio - my doc. is having big time problems getting it approved now - since the end of January, actually. Seems there was a small one month window, which I was in, thank god, when they were willing to pay for this tx - now they\'re not! Gilead better come down on the price of Sovaldi - and with a lot of peeps not getting approved now because of the cost, they can choose to stay super greedy or just semi-greedy. I\'d say by the time Sovaldi/Ledispasvir is FDA approved in six months, the price will be lower. Gilead can\'t continue to \"eat it\" since they paid 11 billion for Sovaldi. Peace 2 u 2.
thats not how patent laws work. My Atripla can be had as a generic around the world made in India for about 200 a month here it\'s like 2500 or so. I see them getting there money back and all that but this is just a combination of 3 drugs in one pill not revolutionary at all. I hear the Olysio cost just as much as Soldavi! Anyhow I finally got some sleep today and last night and even got the job I was after! Hopefully the BP pills are working.

actually Dr. G wants to see me again in 30 days for another draw. We poor bastards who are co-infected they watch a lot closer.
