Starting week 10 of 12!! Thank God!!
« on: January 04, 2017, 09:07:20 am »
Ive just stared week 10 of 12 & ive been undetectable since week 3!
My ultrasound was clear!
My Dr. reordered my FibroTest because i did not fast for the first & he felt it may not have been accurate given my health & no symptoms.
Also my (not sure if im saying this right) nuclioinflammation was redone also.
Thank God my FibroTest went from hi F3-F4
& inflammation test at hi end to
Low F1-F2 FibroTest & No inflammation.
Ive got my natural color in my face is back im full of energy & dont even know im taking Harvoni!
I am soooo Very very thankful for the advice i received in here.
For the speed & thuroughness of my Infectious Disease Dr. & for the medication to be available to me.
I was petrified in the begining!
Not so much for myself but because my family needs me.
 Im only 42, & i want to be there for them for a long time.
All thats left is a visit with another Dr. to see if he feels a esophagus scope is a necessary?
& my 3 month post treatment test along with my final A & B vaccine.
I'll stop back in a while to update my info.
Thanks so much everyone that took time to talk to me....
