A member asked:
Had reactive hep c antibody test, then a while later a hcv rna quantative test that comes back not detected. does that mean the hepatitis c virus is cured?

About 25% of the patients infected with Hep C are able to clear the virus. It is likely that you are in that minority of people who manage to eliminate the virus.
