hello
I noted in your signature that you were UND at 4 weeks and so I would suggest that there is no need for further blood tests until SVR12 with perhaps a poor man’s bloods (LFT) drawn at SVR4 as an indicator to confirm all is on track. Unless of course PCR is required by your doctor as a record for trial results.

@sonix
Just my opinion, but the only tests needed are –
– pre Tx
– during Tx until UND*
– SVR4 (less essential)
– SVR12

*Personally I had a test at 4 weeks into TX which showed Detected
