Hello, I have the c and have posted before but has been awhile, there is just one actual hep doc in this small town and I am not sure about her, have recently been diagnosed with diabettis,and am getting that under control, first how bad is metformin on the liver? I have not had any alcohol in about 4 months, biopsy scheduled for july, but have been eating healthy, exercising,
and treating my body pretty good but,still have bad fatigue,
in the afternoon, and fever and flushing,itching after exercising,
and hard work,my last alt was 83, ast 54, but vl load 13mil. but
that test was in 2005, and was still drinking, probably had hangover at the time,are these late stage symptoms? should I try to move my biopsy date forward, and how do I find a good hep doc in Oregon or the pacific northwest? My hep doc think's I should treat,my gastro doc doesn't think so, and have read that a vl load this high is untreatable? Could the alcohol affect my tests this drastically? What to do? I seem to read good advice here,would appreciate any now, am I eligible for any trial?
well will quit whining, am sure there are a lot of people,worse than me.
