12 week viral load

[Guest guest]

Hi all,I was diagnosed with HCV Genotype 3 about a year back.

Started Pegintron and took it for 19 weeks. The viral load drop was not

good enough. And had continuous problems with Hemoglobin, WBC and

platelets. Had to take Neupogen every week.

Then, on the advice of Jackie emailed Dr. Cecil who advised me

to switch to Pegasys. Gave a 2 week gap when the viral load shot up to

315,000. After 4 weeks of treatment, my viral load was12,400.But now, after 12 weeks of beginning Pegasys, the viral load has gone up again - to 30,400.I'm really disappointed. I was expecting to be undetectible. Is this common? What should I do?
