Reminds me of a tv thing I saw about medicinal pot hubs doing testing for mold when growers came to drop off a crop. If a spliff can rekt your liver due to mold, it kinda stops being medicinal.
Did you do the biopsy thing? I`ve had Hc for ages, and am almost done with the 12 week cure now. Had a inflamation grade of 1, and fibrosis grade 2. My blood tests has always been pretty good w regards to liver nrs tho. Slightly elevated, but nothing to be alarmed by.
Well, that explains everything, doesn't it?Further research shows viruses as some sort of parasite attaching itself to the heads of cells, as seen in this actual* photograph.** https://uploads.disquscdn.c...
When the rapid response test indicated Hep C, my PCP told me I'd probably just been exposed, because my liver function was perfect. There are advantages to not being a drinker.
I had the Hep C virus, but never had a single symptom, unlike the love-of-her-life of Younger Sister, who died in kidney failure many years ago, before treatment became available. I did the 12 weeks of pills and I'm cured, although any time I get the rapid response test, I'll test positive.
It took some searching through the files in my brain to come up with how I got it in the first place. It was my second ear piercing, which I got to celebrate being fired from a job I hated in the early 1980s.
It does seem weird to call it hepatitis, which means liver inflammation, because I never had any inflammation in the liver. Thanks for posting, Carlos.
Yes. The man Younger Sister loved for 18 years until his gruesome death (kidney failure on Thanksgiving, YS's favorite holiday) had a transfusion after a motorcycle accident in his early 20s. It was either that or high school wrestling.

First of all, dying from a bad liver is the most revolting way to go there is. Second of all, it tastes like shit.

If it`s hep c, there are good cures for it now, 12 weeks w a pill a day. I have just 9 days left on my regimen.

Everybody should get the Hep B vaccine series.
Didn't do a biopsy, just an ultrasound. My liver's in perfect shape, and now I'm doing work as a peer.
Very true about it being in the blood supply for years without people knowing. Probably other viruses out there we haven't discovered too.
Yeah, just trying to be funny. Everyone should get the vaccine.
Oh, I got the vaccine from Chiron. They invented it!

I got the Hep B series when I worked with people with developmental disabilities, because we had some carriers.
I'm sure you're right about that. HIV jumped species in Africa in the early 20th century, and the rest is history, unfortunately.
That pretty much covers it.
