    Hello, I am new to this page. Can anyone translate my viral load? It was done in Canada. It says 1.97E+4. Is this high? Or low?

    Any information about this would be helpful. Thank you.

    Dear Teacher.pet,

    1.97E+4 = 1.97 x 10^4 = 1.97 x 10000 = 19700.

    This is low if is before treatment. Still a bit high if you have started treatment.


    Diagnosed Jan 2015: GT3, A0+F0/F1. Fatigue + Brain-Fog.
    Started Sof+Dac from fixHepC 10-Nov-2015. NO sides.
    Pre-Tx: AST 82, ALT 133, Viral Load 1 900 000.
    Week4: AST 47, ALT 58. VL < 15 (unquantifiable). Week12 (EOT): AST 30, ALT 26, VL UND Week16 (EOT+4): AST 32, ALT 28, GGT 24, VL UND Week28 (EOT+16): AST 26, ALT 22, GGT 24, VL UND Ever grateful to Dr James. Relapsed somewhere after all that... Bummer! Jan 2018: VL 63 000 (still GT3).

    With a load below 6 million the observation is the 8 weeks treatment is enough. I would probably still do 12 myself but it is a good prognostic indicator for you.


    YMMV
