Welcome at Chat Doctor I have gone through your query and being your physician I completely understand your health concerns.... Have u stopped in on doctor advice? In my opinion it should be taken at least for six months.....as far as PCR is concerned, cure in CV is defined as by the negative PCR after six months of stopping treatment. This is called SVR. You need to get your CV PCR after six months.... If it recurs meet your hepatologist and discuss the Somali...... As far as other management is concerned you need to get Gladstone along with federal and spy. Lactulose..... Meet your physician for adjustment of dose. Get well scorecards Chat Doctor.
