Ha ha funny!!!!
Beaches , mine is the same, think it’s just a “boy” thing!!!!
That’s very interesting!
It sure makes you think twice about drinking alcohol doesn’t it!Also it says that tobacco smoking contains more than 100 potential carcinogenics that may affect liver..yuck
hmy: I used to do both but gave up about 20 years ago, thank goodness, & don’t think I’d start again. I think anyone reading that article may think to do the same!!
It seems to be proven that alcohol intake is associated with HCC development in patients who SVR, so probably we should all try to not drink, or only a tiny bit?
I think it’s just common sense that after having such a toxic virus in our bodies for so long, living a healthy lifestyle is the best thing to do.
You can still have fun without alcohol.
Something positive though I saw there in that article was that people with cirrhotic livers, post tx, 60% had cirrhosis regression, so how goods that, a great incentive to live the healthy life

Hi Serb,
I think I understand, as I also found that having hep c encouraged
me to live a healthy lifestyle.But I’ve found, since getting hep free, I can still do this.
Try helping others with the virus, or even just those in need, this helps you to remember to look after yourself as well.
I used to party quite a lot before I knew I had the virus, drinking quite a bit, not really looking after myself, but when I was told I had the virus, my lifestyle changed dramatically, almost as if the hep did me good
Because I was suddenly living very healthy. No drinking, good food, lots of exercise.But you can still do this when free of the dragon, and getting involved in helping others to live a more healthy lifestyle and to get cured, would help you look after yourself as well.
Just saying, well it works for me anyway.
I also enjoy it.

Wow Flying fox, your body’s going back to normal, how wonderful
So happy for you

Hi Hope.
Oh wow, I wouldn’t be going back to that specialist, what a creep.
Can you copy what Gaj wrote & email it to her? or just never go back, preferably.She sounds either very ignorant or very just bitchy. I wish you could get a different doc, why not get onto the GP4U sight & see Dr James or his associates via Skype, they’ll look after you.
You don’t need a cruel specialist. Who needs that on top of everything?As the others said, you could just be slightly over the negative number, who knows without a quantitive load measurement, but G 3 is difficult to destroy as quick as the other G types so don’t despair, you’ll get there, even if you may need to prolong tx a little?
Try to cut down on sugar intake & iron intake.
Try to eat a low GI diet, it WILL help.Good luck & DONT give up
Love Cindi x ( Oh, you are G3 aren’t you?? maybe I got it wrong?)
That’s great,
I remember many years ago when I first started out trying to get rid of my virus, my very first liver specialist told me that GT3’s are the ones that have to be extra careful with Insulin Resistance.So I bet this will make a big difference for you, as sugar is what hep likes
You’re on the right track now

AH thanks
Hope he joins you in that lovely SVR12!

Thanks so much Dr J ,
That makes sense, around 3 to 4 wks feeling knocked about if cirrhotic,
We are keeping a close eye on him & my hubby organised a carer for him to keep his little place clean & make sure he’s ok when we can’t be there, so all fingers crossed.

Hi Beaches,
Those levels look fantastic, I think you’ll be ok.
Looks like a healthy, happy liver Love Cindi x
Hi Joy,
Thank you for that, isn’t it wonderful,
also wonderful that you are SVR12 !! J has his 12 wk post tx bloods done this week….
I think he’ll be ok x
Without Dr J where would we all be.
He’s a champion
