Hepatitis C Support Group

Hepatitis C is a blood-borne viral disease which can cause liver inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer. The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is spread by blood-to-blood contact with an infected person's blood. Many people with HCV infection have no symptoms and are unaware of the need to seek treatment. Hepatitis C infects an estimated 150-200 million people worldwide.

That would be havroni and forth AND not really 8 yrs but I carried the virus from the early 80 s and first Tx was in 98 all good now though !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I pray for all who are still waiting, and wondering, When will it be my turn?
Your turn will come. It's painful to see so many get treated with successful outcomes, happy for them of course, but when it hasn't happened for you yet, it can be discouraging.

we are still here for everyone who comes in after us.
I've been in this group since 2008, waiting, treatments that failed, waiting, now on harvoni for six months.

I am blessed to be one of the lucky ones. My experiences pale in comparison to many, having suffered relatively little on my journey to my cure. I extend my best wishes to those who have made it to this side of the 'fence', and my hope to those who are still climbing. Keep at it, nothing is too hard to contemplate or achieve.

Donaldway ..so glad to see you finally made it
although I wasnt on here for my 1st tx in the 90's..I did my my second 2 while here .people were very supportive I finally cleared dec30th 2015 after 40 years ..
@Trissa I am sending good vibes and prayers and luck to you ,in the hope that this 24 week tx will finally do it for you ..
It was very disheartening to see all of them being cured while I was waiting and waiting..
so Im backing you on this one ..
