Why i got +ve result although i have completed a course of Inj. Interferon/?

I have completed a course of injection interferon for the treatment of hepatitis C. but again i got positive result. that is why. that means i have still hepatits c.
Answer:
If you postive result shows greater than 10, I believe the virus came back. Depending on which scale they used. I would call the doctor and ask him/her to read the results to you. Good Luck!
Good question as you were taking your treatments did you have to stop due to your white cell count being too low, , how aggressive was your treatment, there are new meds on htre market for Hep C talk with with your medical doctor or gastroenterologist , they may feel you are a candidate for a longer treatment or different treatment or your medical history may be one that is not conducive with further aggressive treatment, only your physician that knows your health history can give you all the answers. Did you ask your doctor if not ask if you did and don't understand ask again. Second opinions are always a good idea when in doubt
