Two Years Free!!
« on: July 19, 2017, 10:27:45 am »
Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to check in and let you know I just had labs done two years post tx. I am indeed undetected and my liver function has continued to improve with AST and ALT dropping even more from 1 year post.
Wishing everyone success in healing and hoping that all who had tx failures will be able to be treated with new FDA approved drug that just came out.
Peace, love and happiness to all!
