Hi

VL test is still positive. Don't know what to do. Need to settle my mind about this, as they told me they do not want to treat me any more.

I cannot understand why as there was in some stage that they said I could carry on to 48 weeks and than they said I should stop with 24 weeks.

I could cry and not. What do I do?

Oh Curly, I don't know enough about tx to know what your options are...I'd just like to send you a big hug. 

Hoping for the best for you!

Hi Curly,
I don't have any advice as far as treatment goes either, but I just wanted you to know how sorry I am about your VL results.
After my nonresponder results I found the only thing I could really do was just lay back, let it go (try, anyway), and focus on everything else BUT hep c and treatment for awhile.  Enjoy yourself like you've been doing, enjoy your returning health, and realize that whatever happens, whatever your options turn out to be, you will be able to deal with it.
hugs,
Mary   :heart:
