Many of us have posted links to Hepatitis C web sites they have found helpful. Thought it might be useful to post our favorite Hep C/medical web sites in one place. Here's are some of my favorites:

I'm not sure how to code it so that the links are direct as you just did. Please feel free to re-copy my post with direct links if you like. Also, maybe you can give some of less technical folks a little primer in how to do it ourselves. Thanks.

Sorry not quite right - Trying again here:

<a href="http://www.medhelp.org">this link</a>

Just want to try something for accessing links. Trying to make a direct access from the post - not sure if I have this right but if I do it would be easier than cutting and pasting.  The first paragraph should highlight the link only and the second should highlight the text "this link"

Same here jim, got a mild case of psoriasis since starting the tx. I also can't take the sun very well here in beautiful pennsylvania. The riba does a number on us and I try to stay out of the direct sun, also been wearin more long sleeve shirts and the like which is hard to do in the summer.

     Not much red meat guy in the diet , alot of oatmeal , toast , easy to digest food. Can't wait to get off this stuff so I can eat a regular meal again.

Sorry about your sides. I'm generally feeling a lot better, put on some weight, feel a lot stronger, more stamina, etc, -- but lots of skin problems remain where I believe are autoimmune in nature and were caused by the long exposure to the interferon. Hope you feel better soon.

Speaking of skin problems, since so many of us have skin problems on treatment and post treatment is this web site:
http://www.dermnetnz.org/

Keep in mind treatments in New Zealand may be different or less current (or more current) than those here in the States, really not sure. Still a great resource for starters.
