My father was declared HCV+ and after detailed RNA testing at
ranbaxy,mumbai,INDIA(Costs 15k bucks) count was declared about 1.1
lakh and Genotype 3 ?

Some doctors suggests SNMC Therapy,whereas some suggests PEG-IFN
Therapy.
What are the differences in the therapy?
For whom(patients HCV Count ,Type) these thearpies are excatly?What
are the side effects of these two therapies?in Short-tem and long
term?......Is there any sucessfull history of both therapies in
SouthAsia,india in specific?

I was geno 3, did PEG-IFN and it was successful. I have not heard of SNMC
and am interested in learning about it.
