    Ha! You understand me, RHF. :woohoo:

    The evolution started early on in the treatment, pretty much in line with the increased energy, focus and mental sharpness. You do become a different person. It’s great!

    It’s quite interesting to realise how much a whole-of-body (and subsequently mind) disease it is.

    No regrets. I didn’t even know I had hep C until 12 years ago. (if my children had been born with hep C that would have been a big regret)

    The person I am today is the sum total of all my experiences. No point at all in wondering what if.

    May all your dreams come true too.

    I did get to sit under a tree and swim in the tropical ocean for a week so that was good. I recommend it

    Regardless, you are on track, Sven.
    Your next result will be UND.
    If your liver functions have dropped to the normal range and you are feeling noticeably better, the cure is working
    That is probably small consolation to a detail focused individual, but take heart.

    Hey Sven
    If your VL is <15 that means it's unquantifiable which means there is some virus there but the amounts are too small to count. Call me Captain Obvious :P
    This is Good News especially if your liver functions are normal, which they are.
    Why did he say UND? I don't know. Maybe he is anticipating the EOT result. You are on track my brother.

    Hi Donna,’my do said any fibroscan result under 7 is F0, but maybe your test is measured differently.
    You will quite likely be tested 4 weeks after start of treatment and it’s the comparison that is important,mainly you liver functions and VL.
    The ALT especially is a good indicator of whether the treatment is working. Oh,and how you are feeling.
    But then it varies depending on if you ave been treated before or not, e.g. peging
    Good luck with your treatment, wishing you a fabulous result and a long and healthy life

    Hey Sven
    My dentist noted over the past few years that I had dry mouth and I attributed this to aging. I didn’t connect it to hep c but in retrospect I think maybe it was a contributor..
    Anyway, the last time I went (approx 2 months post EOT) she muttered that it wasn’t there and my gums were looking good.
    Hopefully you will have this result also.
