I have always suffered a wopper from my mistakes, but I do say that this is a really bad one. I too am diagnosed with hep c and cirrosis and my treatments are not getting better. At first i was so depressed because i had just passed a written test that i had put my all in. But i did not pass my medical exam test that would have been my ticket to become a successful person. You see i have allways been a f–k -up. I did a decent job raising my son and I did get married to a wonderful man after my son graduated, I raised him alone with nooo man around and no relationships. My husband and i quit drinking 2 years befor I got married. 2 weeks befor takeing my med. exam i was hospitalized and diagnosed with hep c that I didn’t know that i had for about 15 years and because I drank alot I was also diagnosed with cirrosis. Wow! what a mind-f–k.
Anyway, I didn’t pass the hep c treatment and yes I feel the symptons of pain, itchy hands swelled anckles and legs, yellow eyes and skin and dark urine and being so tired was really hard to handle because I have always been an up person. I was so depressed at first not because i have what i have but because I have always messed up in life no-one to blame but my self. I can feel my death comming already and have accepted this in my life. so I am now preparing all that needs to be done befor I am gone. I am a strong positive humerous woman so this helps me cope with my life as is right now. I believe that God has a reason for all that happens to us and my message to all that reads this is, “Don’t blamed others for your mistakes, Don’t feel sorry for yourself, keep your head up and share your experience of haveing hep c and or cirrosis with others,”. And for those that over come your illness take-care of yourself. And for those that are not going to over come your illness, well then, forgive those you hurt in life, forgive those that hurt you and ask God to forgive you for hurting him and for hurting yourself. Smile laugh and be strong. After all we are going to a wonderful place with God and You will definetly be in good hands.

Take-Care!

THANKS FOR THE REPLY YAVO. I AM SO GLAD I FOUND THIS SITE. I WAS BEGINNING TO THINK I WAS LOSING MY MIND. NOT FEELING GOOD,BEING TIRED,ALL THE OTHER CRAP THAT GOES WITH THIS HEP. BUT I SEE THAT IT IS ALL PART OF HAVING IT. IT IS NICE TO KNOW THAT ONE IS NOT ALONE WITH THIS. AND FOLKS WHO DO NOT HAVE IT JUST DONT QUITE GET WHERE YOU ARE COMING FROM.

I WILL BE EITHER TRYOING SOME NEW TREATMENT IN BOSTON AFTER THE FIRST OF THE YEAR OR WILL BE GOING BACK ON INTERFERON AND THE PILLS. O YIPPIE!!!!!!

I was diagnosed with hep c in 2006. I am in the armed forces and me and my friends went and got a tattoo in 2003. I did not find out I got hep c from my tattoo let alone know i had it until 2006. I underwent treatment from 06-07. I am overseas now, but I did not stay below the radar, My hep c is now increasing again in viral load, has this ever happend to anyone else and if so do you have to go through treatment again? I dont know what to do and the doctors here have no experience dealing with hep c so they dont know what to do either. Please help me. I am so alone.

I have been on Interferon and Riba for a bit over 3 months (3 months and a week). My doctor told me last week that I am ‘undetectable’, which was great news, however, now my challenge will be continuing with this medication. I am in a 12 step program and have been for 5 years, so thank God I have the tools of that program to deal with this Hep C ’stuff’. I am trying to take this thing “One Day at a Time”. My biggest issue right now is that I keep getting puffy and itchy around the eyes, some type of minor infection I guess. That’s really embarrasing. I’m trying to keep the Hand Sanitizer at my fingertips at all times, but right now, I’m trying to stay away from anyone and everyone who even has the common cold. Also, did anyone else’s white blood cell count decrease (drastically) as mine has? Feel free to email me at allysene@hotmail.com
