Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 I have friends, man and wife, in Vermont who both have it. I was told I had it once by a doc I was seeing and I was terrified and after 2 years I finally went back and he sent me to a specialist who confirmed that the doc was WRONG and that it was a false positive test and they redid my tests to be sure and they were definately negative for hep c, Thank God, But I know you must be scared, I was ssooo scared and always thought the worst of it but Thank God nowadays they have such Great Medication for it to keep you healthy, you can still live a long healthy happy life with it. My friends Tammy and Earl are both well, he did have heart surgery for clogged arteries but it was not related to the hep c, They think Tammy may have gotten it from a blood transfusion she had when she was a child, she is 41 now. I hope and pray all goes well for you. Do alot of research but don't go all by what the internet tells you becuase they always have alot of half-truths on it too. Take care and God Bless, ROBIN, NEW YORK AGE-41 OPEN RNY OCT. 18TH, 2002 DR.
