Agree with you on herbs. People might feel better when use herbs, it does not mean that liver is getting better.

...I think that person who has end of 2nd stage/grade should really consider interferon treatment.

wow after mercmeet pointed me to the top of the page to look around I see a add by where there is a doctor on the web ,for silver colloid you know the stuff sold by snake oil salemans  for hep C . So med help will pull a link for herbs and call it spam but it is ok for them to run a add for fake hep c cure as long as there is $$$ in it for them. Hey Thats fine it's the American way.

I don't think those two guys were breaking the rules.  We do discuss alternate therapies here, just can't keep reposting the same thing over and over and can't provide URL's where they sell such stuff.  But honest discussion of any therapy, no matter how wacky, is just fine.  Sure, many of them don't work, but if we didn't openly investigate them we'd never know.  For example, milk thistle won't cure hcv, but as I understand it, it will lower ALT levels and may help heal the liver.  I learned about milk thistle here on the forum and, of course, ran it by my doctor for her take on it.  That's what the forum is for - just no snake oil sales or spamming permitted.

hep62pj: I've never run into a problem discussing alternative treatments on this site. People just aren't allowed to promote product.

MedHelp: Thank you for the great job you do. Sorry we've been such a pain the last week.

mremeet: Quit talking about the nads. Soon everyone will want them. You'll be responsible for driving up the price and 1000s of castrated goats.
