NEED ADVISE

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I just got back from the doctors. It was my first visit with this

particular gastroenterologist.

I have had hepc for at least 10 years. Iam genotype 2.

I don't feel sick my enzymes have been normal.

My leg muscles are sore but I don't think it's from the hepc but not

100% sure. I have plenty of energy etc.

The doctor strongly recommended treatment and if not then at least a

biopsy. I'm afraid of both but I must admit that if I could be free

of this virus I would be thrilled.

I would love to hear back from any of you who went through the 24

week process. I have heard horror stories and I have heard great

things. I don't know what I'm going to do yet.

I've been dealing with leg pain from possibly bulging disks for the

past year and am to go to yet another doctor for that next week. I

was an exercise nut for years, but this last year because of the

pain, I couldn't do what I did. I am currently walking more and not

as bad.

So....sorry, this is so long. Let me hear from you and your

experiences with tx and your advise. You can email off the board at

barbarac102@....

Thanks so much.

Barbara
