Am I considered cured?

Am I considered cured? 3 years 4 months ago #28114

I just had my 6 months testing after my 12 weeks on medication. I am still completely clear and undetectable. Isn't it considered cured if you've made it 6 months undetected after treatment?

I heard a good analogy the other day from a UK doctor- he tells his SVR patients, that you are now completely cured, don't get confused in the future if you are tested and it shows antibodies- those are "just a stamp in your passport- they show where you have been in the past, not where you are now"
