A member asked:
I have hepatitis c antibodies but no virus (for a year). is there a chance that the virus will come back? will it come back or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very unlikely: If no virus was detected by "sensitive "hepatitis C RNA test more than one occasion, it is generally considered cured.
