Hi jag

Here is a link

http://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/model-end-stage-liver-disease/meld-model-unos-modification

To calculate your MELD score all you need to know is your INR, your bilirubin in (mg/dl), and your creatinine in (mg/dl) and if you have had dialysis at least twice in the past week.

So if you have access to your blood test data you can it out figure for yourself.
Genotype 1a
1978 contracted, 1990 Dx
1995 Intron A failed
2001 Interferon Riba null response
2003 Pegintron Riba trial med null response
2008 F4 Cirrhosis Bx
2014 12 week Sov/Oly relapse
10/14 fibroscan 27 PLT 96
2014 24 weeks Harvoni 15 weeks Riba
5/4/15 EOT not detected, ALT 21, AST 20
4 week post not detected, ALT 26, AST 28
12 week post NOT DETECTED (07/27/15)
ALT 29, AST 27 PLT 92
24 week post NOT DETECTED! (10/19/15)
44 weeks (3/11/16)  fibroscan 33, PLT 111, HCV NOT DETECTED!
