In fact, I was the first G3a non-responder to start the trial worldwide, by virtue of the sun rising here in
NZ first!
Anyway, on my screening day, which was my also my first appointment, they took bloods for a CBC analysis, LFTs and for a viral load and genotype confirmation. I also did a urinalysis sample as they were testing for creatanine (monitors renal function), amongst other things, as that was one of the big inclusion/exclusion factors for my trial.
