I was diagnosed in 2003 of having hepatitic c with geotype 1a after having done lab work. I thought I was going to die. I went through 1 year of self injections with peg interferron and riboviron capsules. All of my friends and coworkers think that once you get it you don t get rid of it and that I will some day die with this disease. I am taking meds for hypothyroidism because of the hep c treatment I was onm. Am I going to die from this disease?
HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern you actually badly scared, no need to think in that way, life itself is very insecure and unpredictable healthy persons dies without any sing and symptoms on the other hand, with the terminal stage of malignancy patients still doing well, you are under the wrong impression that in case of hepatitis patient dies, this is not true, forget about this and enjoy the life, hope this information helps you have nice day.
