what type pcr?
found out about HCV 8 month ago , had my 1st PCR 6 month ago & it was< 615 iu going to have my 2nd pcr what type do you suggest qualitative or most sensitive quantitative or something else?

I don't see that you need a PCR at all. But, if you intend to get one you should get the least expensive one possible. There is no need to go to great expense for the most sensitive. The test you took 6 months ago would be a good one to repeat.
i am so afraid of having this < 615 iu result because of intermittent viraema , after thinkig deeply i got infected 7 years ago from blood transfusion so i am in chronic stage now, any information about intermittent viraemia would be very helpful , thanks
