Harvoni 2 Week Bloodwork Results
« on: January 27, 2015, 02:58:47 pm »
Pre Harvoni on 10/14/2014 :

AST : 123 (0-40)
ALT : 155 (0-44)

HCV RNA : 5,441,700 IU/mL


After 2 weeks on Harvoni on 1/21/2015 :

AST : 28 (0-40)
ALT : 28 (0-44)

HCV RNA : 97


So, my VL went from 5.4 million to 97 in 2 weeks.

Thank you AL. I hoped for Und status but I guess that may come later. :)

The only thing that was high was my cholesterol at 244 but I don't agree with their <200 guidelines and I prefer it to be right around 250.  So, it's free range eggs fried in butter for supper.

I had an elevated BUN / Creatinine ratio last October but that's now in the normal range.

Notice I placed commas in my HCV RNA. I hate it when people don't do that, it's very hard to be able to tell if their PCR is in the millions, the 10 millions, or 100 thousands or whatever. :)

Way to go Joe looks like the Harvoni is slaying the dragon nicely!! When are  your next labs? Sure looks like you're headed towards UND status. Hang on there!
My 12 wk lab was No HCV RNA detected on Harvoni at EOT Jan 14. Now hoping for a big SVR in 6 mths.

Hi Jeanie,

I have my next appt with Gastro's office on Feb 18 and at that time they're going to do blood work again. :)

Best wishes for long term SVR.

It is, and this site was also very encouraging to me when I came here about 3 days into Harvoni Tx, and still is, of course.
Best wishes to you for SVR. :)

Thanks Lynn.

Hopefully I'll get SVR. I see them next on Feb 18 and we do more blood work at that time and I'll cross my toes to be Und then. :)
