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.

Glad for him. My brother also cleared without treatment. Long time ago, he doesn't even know what his geno type is. Makes me wonder if we didn't get it from our dentist. You can bet no one in my home would share intimate articles. My mother was ocd germ freak.

Yes, congrats to your BF!! I contracted my HCV from my ex, who has run the whole gamut... alcoholism, drugs, Hep C, cirrhosis of the liver.... Was talking to my daughter last week, telling her about the severity of my side effects, and she told me the Ex had tested clean from his HCV!!! He's never had treatment, still drinks, etc. Sometimes life just ISN"T fair!!! I am very happy for him, but still have feelings of, 'Why him?? Why not ME????" as I face the next 40 + weeks of Peg ant riba.
But great news for oyu BF!!

Good for him. I tested positive for it on the 11th of January. I been freaking out. I go on the 1st of February to see what treatment they are gonna start. i have really low number 10,000. I heard from 3 doctors and a nurse that is a very low number. i dont know what my geno type is. I just want to say congrats to him. Iam jealous my self and pray my body takes care of it. Well to all the people out there living with it and going through the treatment good luck and i pray for you. I will start my treatment next month.
