I am a healthy 53 year old male who had hepatitis at the age of 6. All I can remember is that I was hospitalized for several months and was the youngest person (at one point) to ever receive a liver biopsy. My enzyme levels were checked daily, and I eventually "was cured". I received no medical treatment other than isolation. Many years later, when I began hearing about long term affects of hep, I asked my old family doctor what type of hep I had. He told me they didn't know. At the time, there were apparently no tests to narrow down the type. All he said is that it was non A non B.
As an older adult, I am now experiencing chronic fatigue. I wake up in the mornings feeling relatively good, but by noon and I have absolutely no energy. I've been checked for diabetes and that was negative. No doctor I've seen seems to take the issue seriously. I'm now wondering if the fatigue may in fact be related to my childhood case of hep.
Any education or insight would be greatly appreciated!!
