I was dx with HC a couple of years ago, had biopsy a month ago -grade 2 stage 2, vl-5,000,000,
have had it about 30 years, doc told me should wait for treatment, but have had a lot of small health problems and wondering if they are related, or just age related,have had to have the colon thing every couple of years, and they always find polyps, have had a lot of gum problem's (no drugs for about 25 years, good hygene, family history of good gums and teeth) came down with type 2 diabettis year ago,stopped drinking, vl dropped fromm 13,000,000 to 5,000,000-tryglycerides from 1200 to 330,
alt and ast fell to normal, diabettis a little better,but keep having sore's in mouth, and skin tags growing in the back of my throat (the doc tells me caused by a virus) , and have had some problems wiht my feet, numbness in my big toes and feet, the doc said peripheral neuropathy,(am not overweight lost 40lbs. when I quit drinking) question: are these problem's related to hep c , or am I just getting old and whining? would appreciate any input from the people in this forum because they have been there, and it will help me in my decision to tx soon or not.. am 53 yer's old..so what do you think ready for the home yet or not?
