hepatitis c
"Just got the fantastic news yesterday...I am cured...have had for 40 years...tried 5 different medications...the virus hung on tight. I was given 6 months treatment, had a couple headaches but it was a breeze compared to interferon.  I now am planning to travel and just enjoy this life without hep c, so long hep c after 20 yrs. I have known I had the virus, and that was on my mind all the time.  I was scared to make any plans  My driving force was my family and my fantastic grand daughter...she is 6 and needs me around to show her the ropes.  Thank you to all the men and women who worked around the clock to create this miracle cure starving off the virus...what a common sense approach...this now is being applied to aids, cancer...xxx"
