Undetected at 12 wk EOT!

[NYCMark]

I had my bloods drawn yesterday for my 12 week EOT test after sofosbuvir/simeprevir/ribavirin. I am lucky to continue to be undetected!!  Of course I'm very pleased with these results, and will next follow up with the test in another 12 weeks to make it official at 24.  I hope many more here have good test results, too!!

Can-do-man, you are correct.  My post was meant to reflect the fact that now, 12 weeks AFTER the completion of treatment (EOT, completion of therapy), my HCV RNA remains "not detected".  This follows being <15 at two weeks during treatment, and not detected at 4 weeks and 12 weeks during treatment.  My 4 weeks post EOT was not detected, and now the 12 weeks post EOT is the same.  Looking good, but I will believe I am "cured" when I do the 24 week post EOT HCV DNA quantitative test.  After all, I remember relapsing at some point weeks or months after completing my multiple various older treatment attempts in past years.  So thanks again Livelife777 and can-do-man: Undetected at 12 wks post EOT!  Will post again at 24.  Hoping that all those who finished more or less at the same I did will also be undetected on THEIR 12-week post EOT.

Just want to add it would make it clear if the title of the thread read.

Undetected at 12 wk post EOT!

Not Hector but to clear up any confusion which there seems to be. If one is UND after doing 12 weeks of treatment and THAT PCR says your UND at the EOT then yes it is possible you might relapse. Now if one is post 12 weeks EOT and their PCR shows they are still UND 12 weeks after ending treatment then yes they are considered cured with these new meds.

Hope this helps
