This is an article that tackles head-on, the widely missed issue of the new drugs not working on certain genotypes of the disease. (Genotype 3, the one I have), does not respond to the new drugs). This is the type of information that saves lives, because my first GI doctor did not inform me of all I needed to know in my first 2 attempts at treatment. Thank you!

Best,
