The second wait! 7 years 7 months ago #23751

Going to have bloods taken for SVR 12 tomorrow and hopefully will be getting confirmation that the bastard virus is dead later in the week !

Fingers crossed for the others having retreatment right now and getting close to the end.

cheers

The text from the Doc said The fat lady is singing .... and so it is SVR 12 B)

This has been quite a ride over the last 16 or so months but in reality it started much earlier with my first quest for treatment in about 1997.

Dr Freeman , Fixhepc, this forum and some facebook members have made this final phase much easier to deal with.

James stuck his neck out for us as a group early on with the import assistance of generics it probably gave him a few sleepless nights given whats at stake. For that I thank him from all of his Heppers.

cheers

Had mine done today and see specialist next week for results.

Second time around for me. First treatment started in Oct 2015 and this second lot commenced in Oct 2016 - something of a yearly thing for me which I hope I don't have to repeat again.

I did notice that all the way through, including time after I relapsed, AFP was normal and LFT's were bad only off treatment. First time ALT was up above normal; second time ALT was fine - so here is hoping the fat lady is about to sing.

Yours


Jeff
