Hi Sue,

I am Penny and I had cirrhosis from Hep C, and had a liver transplant

on January 6, 2008. I am doing very well now. You stated in one of

your posts that your husband Jeff had to do treatment for the Hep C

after his transplant. I will have to do that too. I just had a

biopsy of my new liver Tuesday for staging to see what effect the Hep

C is doing to my new liver. I won't get the results for a couple of

weeks, and if it shows it's not trying to affect the liver yet, I can

hold off on doing the treatment for a while. I actually have three

questions for you. How long after transplant did your husband have

to do the treatment? How did he do with the treatment (symptom

wise), was he very sick with it? And lastly, what was his viral load

of the Hep C when he started treatment? My viral load was 60,000 in

March, and now it has jumped up to 207,000, which is the highest it

has ever been since I've had the Hep C, but that is mostly because of

the immunosuppressant drugs limiting my immune system from fighting

off the virus. Last May before the transplant, my viral load was

900. The highest it has ever been before transplant was in 2004 when

it was 160,000, and I already had cirrhosis.

Thank you in advance for answering my questions, if you will.

Also, to everyone else who has had not the best of news lately, I

hope things get better. I hope everyone is well as can be.

Take care.

Penny
