Guest guest Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Thanks for the inclusions of the HIV issues! I have been warned, and the reason is that the virus starts replicating again and changing into more resistant strains. So I don't/won't miss a one! I do have a question about HCV - first blood test after being diagnosed. What does that blood test look for, other than viral load? I need to have this done to see if I need more drugs to treat both. I am doing well on the ART's so far, but dread those for HCV from all the stories I hear here! LOL. Always wishing you all better days!
