Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Well, I didn't mean to delete your entire message. For some of us treatment is just not an option. I was diagnosed almost 2 yrs. ago. Had no idea what Hep C was. Started researching it, stopped in my tracks and DID NOT want to know more. Next day started reading more about it, stopped and DID NOT want to know more, it continued that way for some time. Thru it all I've known from DAY 1 that treatment is not for me. I suffer from Major Clinical Depression, Generalized Anziety Disorder and Panic Disorder. I also have Psoriasis big time! ALL of these would be multipled 10 fold.I'm almost 55 and raising 2 grandchildren, 5 & 9, I'd been in a legal battle for almost 4 yrs. to get these babies out of He**, when I found out about the Hep C. Pretty much the only symptoms I have is FATIGUE ( DEAD TIRED is a better word for it ), upper quadrant pain, and occasionl brain fog. How much of all this is Hep C and how much is the depression, how much is that I'm a smoker and how much is that I'm raising a family at my age? I have no idea. I'm trying Dr. Berkson's treatment plan at home with supplements. Like many here I was a drug abuser and contracted the Hep C in 1975 from IV use. I've been drug free since then and over the years taking medicine ,EVEN VITAMINS has become a phobia for me. BUT, I started vitamins 4 days ago and as silly as it seems, that was a BIG step for me. So for now, I am feeling my way thru this maze, and like everyone, never knowing where the next tun will take me...Debbie2 > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
