HCV Antibodies Test

I am a young person of 37. Married with two kids. I live in capital city of Pakistan, Islamabad. I had Hepatitis C and then i got complete therapy i.e. Interferon and then my PCR is negative. But my HCV Antibodies test is still coming positive (+). I would like to know that is it possible that in any way my HCV Antibodies test becomes negative.

I will be thankful for your kind reply. Thanks

Kind regards
