Guest guest Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Hello list, My name is Cyn and I live in Arkansas with my husband, children, horse, goats, chickens, cats, and dogs. I love the country life that I now live! The reason for my stopping by is to seek help with dealing with Hep C. My hubby, Brad, was diagnosed last year with it. He could have gotten it from many sources since his life B.C. (before Cyn), he was a heavy drug user, was in Vietnam War and got a tattoo, and probably got blood from several sources over his long life. We can't pin down the source so we just accept the situation. He has other medical problems, RSD, is his main problem. A chronic nerve disease has completely left him disabled. Thankfully he goes in tomorrow for a procedure that should help his pain. When Brad's test came back positive, I was tested, and found to be negative. In the last few months I've noticed that I'm not feeling all too good and believe I now have it also. Ok.. here are my questions.... Will Hep C cause you to sleep on and off for three days (more sleep than wake time by 75%)? Having Hep C, does that limit the kinds of jobs a person does? Can you work in a restaurant? How do you combat the fatigue? I have read that eating a special diet low in protein is the best route to go. What have you learned? That's about all I can think of for the moment. I've read several of the posts and feel like this is a good place to get answers and hugs. Thank you and gentle hugs to all, Cyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
