About to start harvoni, viral load is 8m

Hello fellow sufferers, I'm new to this group and am pretty scared. I start Harvoni in a week after my find my genotype out, but my viral load is in the 8 million. Is that something I should worry about and does that cause more damage to my liver than other viral loads, I have felt a pain for quite some time. Blood tests say my enzymes are in the mid 300s and that there's no indication of cirrhosis and I've only had it for four years and I'm 30 yrs old. Who can give me some insight and help to at least give me some answers. Thank you so much for your time and help.
