On the good news side, if you wanted to really dig back into the forum you will see people who failed first time up, who did not get left behind, and we got them cured on the flip side. At FixHepC we do run by the Marines slogan of nobody left behind.

Well, I guess we'll just see what things look like with my 8wk labs.

I also have Gt 4ACD and was reassured during treatment by this video on Genotype 4. At the 29:21 mark in the video he mentions that Genotype 4 is very sensitive to DAA's.
