I too have hep c and have had two rounds of interferon since 1994. The last one being 3 yrs ago which included Ribavirin. My treatments did not work for me and I still have chronic active Hep C. I am hopeful and believe that the treatments have slowed down any further progression or deterioration. I am doing well, active and take care of myself. I eat healthy and have regular doctor visits with blood work and annual Ultrasounds of the Liver. I know that the treatment does work for some and very thankful and happy for their success. I am very thankful that I have lived 57 yrs and 28 of those yrs, I have had hep C. I received 3 blood transfusions when I was pregnant with my wonderful son 28 yrs ago. He did not contract the disease and I pray to God for thanks!!!! It is in the hands of the Lord and I have turned this over to him. I am thankful for every day. I have 6 wonderful kids and 4 grandchildren. I am not going to spend the rest of my life worrying and ruining the time left on earth.
