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.
It does get better!
Fatigue may take some time to get worse, and also issues with dry skin may not happen for some time. Hair loss does not happen for a few months, but you can have a reaction to shots, like you did on this one, and I had on my very first shot. The good thing is that maybe you won't have any other bad shot nites; I have only that first one that was a nite of rigors, then I was fine.
As everyone has said, you MUST drink that water. I had headaches ONLY when I did not drink enough water. All I did to get rid of the headaches was drink more water! I did not need to take any headache pills, so it proved to me that the water is mandatory on tx. The best way to ensure you drink enough is to always have a bottle of water with you. To this day, I have bottles of water all over my place, beside livingroom chairs, at my bedside, on the kitchen counter, everywhere.
If you drink enough water, there will be many sides that you just won't have, of that I'm convinced. I have very few sides, and none serious; I believe it is due to my drinking tons of water.
Went to see the kids, they are so beautiful, hope they are being good for mama, and grandmama.
Might drop in and see you later on, I have been sick for 3-4 days now, finally decided to try to answer the easier threads tonight, can't concentrate these days. lol
