Guest guest Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 People experience hep C in different ways. They may not have any symptoms at all. In fact, symptoms of chronic hep C may not appear until advanced liver disease is already present. It is also possible to have symptoms but minimal liver damage. This is why tests of your liver’s health such as enzyme levels in your blood, other blood tests, a liver ultrasound, or a liver biopsy are important. Remember: how you are feeling does not always match up with the severity of your condition. If you wait to experience symptoms before you start treatment, your liver may already be severely damaged. Symptoms that may be related to chronic hep C include (but are not limited to): Fatigue Flu-like symptoms: fever, chills, muscle aches, joint pain, and headaches Nausea, aversion to certain foods, unexplained weight loss Psychological disorders, including depression Tenderness in the abdomen Jaundice elizabeth easterday <queenelizabethann1963@...> wrote: Oh My God, thats to funnnnnnnny!!! Shit I thought I was bad. I'm taking 300 mg of Lithium 3 x a day. But like you I was taking it before I found out about the Hep C. So I sure as hell can't use the virus as cause, damn it! But seriously I do know exactly how you feel. I just recently moved out of my father & step mothers (bitch) into my sisters, due to the problems with the step mother (bitch). Hoest to God if i wouldn't have left I would of done something horrible to her. I would be so upset, depressed & suicidal over there I would plot things everyday, that I wanted to do to her. And beleive me useing 1 of your husbands eyes for an oulet, is mild compaired to what I wanted to do. And I'm not that kind of person. She was also very cruel to me. She wanted to push me over the edge. But I hung in there, held my temper & got the hell outa there. Now guess whos losing their mind? Hey stay away from the cords ok?

They make me normal. I'm right back where I started and I HATE the rage and things that have been going through my mind in the last week. Today it got very bad and it's the same crap all over again so I've decided that my liver is just going to have to deal with that drug. Apparently I'm someone who needs it. lol By the way.... I was taking these months before I even knew I had hcv, so I don't think one has anything to do with the other in my case. I'm just friggin nuts! lol Gayle :-o __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
