I just wanted to post a quick note to say I received my 12 week results yesterday and the treatment is working. My viral load before treatment was 2,700,000 and it has dropped to 645. It went down 6 logs and my doctor considers that a great sign. I will continue treatment for 8 more months. It seems to me that the side effects are starting to get a little more noticeable but nothing I can't deal with.I hope this news will give all of you starting treatment or those that are considering it, hope. Stay positive and my prayers are with all of you.Have a good weekend,Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Congratulations ! I am very happy for you. I found out today that my youngest daughter and my husband are both Hep C NEGATIVE!! Wooo Hoo! They were both a little nervous, so it was a great way to start the weekend. I'm still waiting on my genotype. Hopefully I will find out next week. In the meantime I found out on Wednesday that I have a golfball sized fibroid tumor in my uterus and will be having a total hysterectomy on August 31. I needed to get it done before I start my treatment. So, I won't start treatment until October. If it isn't one thing, it's another. Hope you all have a great Friday, Barbara > Hi Everyone, > Happy Friday! I hope everyone is doing well.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Thanks everyone! Barbara, good luck with your upcoming surgery, I will be praying for you. I have had little to no side effects with this treatment until just recently. I don't know if I have a 'bug' that I can't get rid of or its the tx, but I am sooooooo wiped out lately. It's been almost 2 weeks of this. I feel so drained I can't explain it and I woke up in the middle of the night last night because I was nauseous. Why would side effects kick in now???? Oh well, i am trying not to let this get to me. > > Hi Everyone, > > Happy Friday! I hope everyone is doing well.
