Viral Load Still High After 4 Weeks
Hi Everyone,
I’ve been on hepatitis C treatment for about four weeks, but my viral load hasn’t reduced much yet, Is it normal? How long does it usually take for the viral load to get dropped? Should I be worried or talk to my doctor about changing my treatment? I’d appreciate any advice or experiences you can share.
It is so difficult to say because so many individuals have different characteristics and vary so much, but here is a place to start that has info on viral load: https://hepatitisc.net/diagnosis/viral-load-testing It may, at least, give you a way to craft some questions that you can ask your physician or maybe get a second opnion. Let us know if there's anything else we can do to help. Keep on keepin' on, DPM
