You can fight it

3 years ago, I was given the shots Pegesy & co pegesy to fight my Hep C. I was on the shots for 9 months. Today I am hep C free. And hope that others that are out there that have Hep C will read this and realize that there is hope. Fight it.

I kicked its butt here and back :)

Thanks for the encouragement people do need to know that there are many success stories out here and it's worth the fight even though it's a long hard one!

Thanks for sharing that with us. It is always encouraging to hear when people have made it, no matter the success rate. It always gives hope, and that is one of the things we need with this disease. Having hope, being proactive and kicking dragon a§§.

well . . . some can and some can't. The treatments have a roughly 50% success rate for many with Hep C. That's fantastic that you cleared the virus. But others are not so fortunate through no fault whatsoever of their own. The current treatments leave much to be desired.
