I have discovered that I have HCV 3 years ago because I fell all the tiem fatigue but I put this things on my work. I stay to much our working in front of a PC. I went to my doctor and he made me some blood tests. The results were high and the doctor said that I have to repeat them. I make it three times, then he said that is better to test me for hepatitis. I was detected having C virus.I don't know what genotype I. When I found out the sky blow out for me. I start crying and I siad to myself why GOD it happens to me. First thing was to make the test for my husband and kids ! The enzymes were 6 times then normal. 16 years ago I get a blood transfusion, and I'm sure that in that time I contracted the HCV. Were 4 in our family. 2 kids a girl which is actually 18th years old and a boy which is 7 years old, thanks GOD nobody just me have HCV. My family supports me very well, the doctor tell me about this that I have to make biopsy to can get the treatment. It's very heavy to support this pain at the biopsy, but with faith in GOD I pass this too. The biopsy result said that I have child hepatitis and the fibrosis is 6 on ISCAR score. I get 1 year Interferon Alpha 2 A and I could not belive that I can suffer that pain. Is very hard to shoot you 3 days a week and to work too and to keep calm. I still work and my life changed completely, on treatment whit Inteferon sometimes I get mad, then sad, I lose weight, and I changed the diet completely. I don't eat fatty things, fried things and so on. My result for blood test was jumping up and down, one month OK then up again and so on. After stopping the treatment with interferon the gave me the Pegintron alpha 2 a and I took 4 months and still the analysis are up and down. I was in a national project and I have health insurance so I haven't pay anything. Now my doctor said that it's OK but I have to keep it the same way as before, not to drink any alcoholic drinks, not to eat fatty things, and to maintain the optimism. My opinion is that GOD tested me to see if I go t
hrough this. I don't hide from nobody that I was infected with HCV, is a disease which cannot be transmitted easely. I would recommend to all people in the whole world to not be affraid when they find out about this disease. To inform themselves via Internet, doctors, firends and to trust in GOD that everything will be OK at the end.
