oh, Man.....are you asking for the study again, just because I made a comment? Jesus, maybe I should be in a hep c chat room instead, so I wouldn't have to verify scientifically every statement I make. Grow up, Bob! come on! Satya

Satya,

Your commen: quote " just remember, that while the virus may be gone from

the blood, it still

remains in the tissues, and can once again raise its ugly head " endquote

....has serious ramifications associated with it. As such I was wondering

where you got this information. Do you know if the patients followed for

ten years (and longer) who have repeatedly tested negative (in blood) still

have virus in their tissue? Do you know what percentage of patients

testing negative, six months after tx has ended, have positive viral titers

from tissue. Does it happen to some? ALL? This would help other readers

put your statement into perspective. Or is this more loose language on

your part?

If you don't know just say so!

Regards,

BobK

It was just a comment. I read enough things on these newslists to pick up some general information from reading plenty of scientific articles which are posted. I'm not a doctor, just a regular person, and people know this. I don't expect people reading these posts to take my words as gospel........it was just a comment.....n-kay-y-y-y-y-y?? Satya
