Hepatitis C Neuropathy

by lindysturn, Sep 30, 2009 12:24AM
Has anyone experienced HCV neuropathy before TX and does TX resolve it? Does it go away completely or are there residual effects that never go away?

Thanks.

I have had a mild form of neuropathy that was probably caused by the HCV BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO PROVE IT. I still have a mild form of it and I am SVR for 18 months now.
  Most of the time I don't even notice it. Occasionally it will bother me when I am laying down. But that seems to be 2 or 3 days a month.
