Guest guest Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I am writing an article about issues that women with hepatitis C (HCV) face. I am particularly interested in hearing from women who are dealing with childbearing issues. For instance, when thinking about having children, what are your feelings about pregnancy and having HCV? If you have considered treatment, what are your thoughts on the idea of getting HCV treatment first, then pregnancy versus pregnancy first, then treatment? If you delayed pregnancy because you opted for treatment first, how did that work out? If you are a mother who knew she was HCV+ prior to pregnancy, I'd really like to hear from you. What issues did you face during pregnancy? Do you know the status of your child? What is/was it like waiting to find out about your child's HCV status? Talk about your feelings if your child is HCV+. Do you have any advice for women who are in similar situations? I am a nationally-recognized writer, specializing in HCV issues. I am a nurse and I have HCV.

If you email me directly, I can promise discretion. I can't promise that if you post to a community forum since your responses will be public. Thank you in advance for taking the time to consider my request. Lucinda K. Porter, RN lporterrn@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
