    • I’m With You

      From LynnNaz November 10

      I am also Hep 2b. Diagnosed in 4/09. I guess we're among the lucky ones in the Hep C world. Not only is it easier to cure if you play by the rules, my hubby liver dr. believes by it;s (no alcohol or drug overload) it is not as damaging to liver.

      Good luck - catch ya at the 6 month point.

    • Thanks

      From JuniorsGirl November 7
