Relapsed

Well EOT 4 week VL test came back detectable. I guess Gt3 is a bugger to treat. Hopefully i can rely on PSI-7977 soon

That's a shame, Malbert, sorry to hear.

There is hope in the new meds.

I too am waiting for the new drugs as I am a geno 3 relapser as well. I am hoping to get into a clinical trial. You should ask your doctor about these as well. Stay strong and be positive.
