A friend mine was found to have Hep-C 3 years ago. She had a gastly treatment that was some sort of chemo for a year and a half. She lost weight and looked like a skeleton, her skin wrinkled up and she felt absolutely horrible during the entire year and a half.

Finally she was told she was over it and now a year or so later you would never know how bad it was, she is cured!

I have a similar friend, she was a nurse at Walter Reed, got it from a needle stick, and a medical retirement from the military when she came up positive. When it started to go acute they did the chemo, Interferon, her life was hell for a year, but she’s virus free and back to her old self.

The treatments are improving, and I’ve been discussing it with my Dr. My numbers are always good, but it can’t be doing nothing, and I’m a carrier.
