SVR 17 Is All Mine. TY Vosevi.
« on: April 02, 2019, 06:37:44 pm »
I had blood work and a follow up appt with the gastro's FNP about 2-3 months ago. All is still looking good. I have very normal ALT & AST. The results were sent to my PCP and he was amazed at how well my blood work has normalized. After once having AST over 200 for a while, it's normal now.

I think I see them again this Summer.

In the mean time I'm still dealing with the after effects of Vosevi 12 weeks but I should be fine after a while. I'm a lot more together now. People respect me more. I'm more even tempered and I seem to make good decisions easier.

Thanks for the support. :)
