Curious. For relapses,
(1) what week did you go non detected?
(2) what was your EOT VL?
(3) what week did you relapse?
Thanks for any data.  For myself I'm trying to determine if me clearing the virus slowly is an advantage or disadvantage.

  • Get tested, get treated, get cured, fight Hep c!
Hi on treatment viral load matters little

I treated from March to June 2014 with Sovaldi and Olysio

I was not detected at week 4 and at end of treatment (EOT) week 12 I was still not detected. When tested again in September 2014 my viral load had returned to slightly higher than pre treatment level at 2.4 million with before treatment was 2 million.

We have even had s few here who were weakly detected at EOT who later made SVR 12

The only test that counts is the 12 week post treatment test.

Good luck the odds of cure for you are very good as they are for most of us
