Hey everyone. I'm back. I just couldn't relate to new people in the pain group. I am/was Hep C 1A and am 5 months post tx. I have constant pain and wierd things happening in both my feet and hands, slowly getting worse. Had electromyography and get results next week. SVR test next month. My heart goes out to you all and hope my experiences help somebody. Ask me anything or cuss me out, it's ok. Hang in there. Wes.
