Hi All,
I am on week 21.  First time did 64 weeks, was a partial responder at week 12 and was UND at about week 37.  This time with triple therapy (Incivek + PR) was UND at weeks 4 and 12.  I have been fortunate in that I have not had any serious sides from treatment.  Heres to all of us achieving SVR!

Hi Greg,
I remember reading your posts during my first round of treatment.  Know you will be SVR this time!

Greg, still doing a happy dance for you when I do one for myself.   :grin:  Guess I can join the Round Two Crew even tho I'm on Round Three!  But hey, I'm almost done.  Four peg shots left with 5 weeks of Riba and this gal is still UND.  I'm gonna join the SVR crew!

Start week 29 with interferon shot tomorrow night and week 20 of procrit Saturday. Been out of work on short term disability since the week after Thanksgiving.  This second round is kicking my butt, but I'm still UND so I'll take it! 

Hope all is well.
