    • About Me

      I was diagnosed in August 2008 with Hepatitis C. My twin sister and I were born 3 months premature and both received blood transfusions after we were born. Stage 1, Genotype 1a. Did 14 weeks of treatment. Stopped because I was a non-responder. Waiting for new drugs in the next 3 years. Nothing I can do until then.
