 You have VERY low levels of viremia. I would wonder if it is possible you were recently infected and might be clearing the infection on your own..... Please follow up in about 4 weeks to determine if you cleared....If not, you should have further testing to determine if treatment is necessary. I would want to make that intervention before 12 weeks have passed. HOwever, this news is so good, I expect that spontaneous clearance is more likely. | ||||||||
