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.

brkfst choices: 1) oatmeal made w/whole milk + butter (you can cut down on butter by adding 2 tbs cream w/milk)
2) coffee cup scrambled eggs, made w/2 tbs whole milk, + 1 piece of toast w/ enough butter. 3) nutrigrain french toast waffles w/butter
2:00 fat feedng: LOTS of good choices.... 1) BLT w/mayo (4pcs bacon + multio-grain bread, 2 gr fat per slice) 2) pork roll & cheese sandwich 3) 2 breaded frozen fish fillets + 1 froz. potatoe patty 4) light tuna in olive oil on lettuce w/ a little balsamic vinegar *this one's somewhat healthy at least
nightime: I eat a light dinner around 7:30 like salad or soup w/a couple of crackers or a regular meal of some sort but not too much.. because LATER.....9:30 - 10 pm...it's ice cream + 1 choc chip cookie to equal 20 grams. 1 Blueberry muffin has 11 gr fat.
I basically eat my dinner or biggest meal at 2, then eat a light supper...then fattening desert! The way I look at it, I'm going to be so sick of this stuff - already am - that after the incivek, I'm going to be the healthiest eater in town and will lose the few pounds I've already put on.
It's worth it to do it right and make sure the medicine gets to your liver.
Hope this helps... I got more if you want em...! Like you could make a pork chop dinner & eat it with your 2nd set of pills..
I posted this before but this is how you (or hubby, God bless him) do coffee cup scrambled eggs. Real quick & might not bother your mouth. and don't over toast the toast, that hurts my mouth too. I started rinsing w/listerine a couple of days ago and it seems to help my mouth sores. Others mentioned Mr. Magic Mouthwash. suppose to be very good, but expensive.

You don't want to get high cholesterol! It's ok to eat the other fats like dairy and meats in moderation.
Have you considered avacados or coconut? You could get about 20 gr. of fat in a large avacado. Just toss a little lemon juice on it and eat it out of the rind.
I sure hope you are feeling better!! Stay strong!!!
Hi poker, sorry to hear you feeling so aweful. I'm not on the 3x tx but reading through all the suggestions made me think of cold pressed virgin coconut oil, its a solid oil and I used to eat it off the spoon it was so good.
I find it at the organic shop in my country. It is a health food too its meant to inhibit hep c replication (thats why I was using it). If you get it, you must get the cold pressed virgin stuff which is white not the yellowy stuff which is disgusting, and maybe a more knowledgable member or doctor advice whether its ok to take during tx.
Take care,
marina
