Those drugs you mention are NOT for treatment of HCV.  Not sure what your doctor told you but you most likely don't have a recurrence.  You just never got rid of the virus.  Get another doctor and get on drugs meant to treat HCV.

It is unclear what your treatment for your hepatitis C was in 2011. The augmentin is an antibiotic and the livolin is typically used for asthma? Based on what you have reported, it would be difficult for anyone to provide advice. Do you know your genotype, viral load? Are you being seen by a gastroenterologist/hepatologist?

Are you sure you have hepatitis C?  What makes you think so?

Be well. Jo
