other's opinions please
I have Hep C. Geno type 1, stage 3 w fatty liver. Never overweight.
How long can stage 3 hold?
My impression is this is not that bad - correct?
Past treatment w 3 meds (over last 2-3 years).
Interferon w copegus
Albuferon w copegus
Infergin w copegus
I was told I was a "non responder" each time (but my viral loads DID respond some, to each)
Anyone similar & any info?
Thanks - not a "worrier" but Do want to know realism.

I wrote here to try to get input from numerous people with various treatment experiences that might offer different points of view. All views are read and then weighed as to pertaining to my situation.
Quite frankly, I am very surprised with all the back & forth "squabbling & bickering"! Everyone is entitled to post their trtmnt & reactions, etc - I believe "it's ok" to do that ... doesnt have to be The Only View; just another one.
Supposedly we are all fighting Hep C, so why not agree to allow others their input without attacking each other ... then that person feels the need to "retaliate" in writing; and on, and on, and on?
Personally, I read them all, looking for possibilities and would appreciate if everyone could kinda not take thins as a personal affront from another person's thoughts. I believe we are all adults fighting similar wars. On the 7th I am being flown, to NC, by Angelflight, to be seen by Dr Keyur Patel at Duke for the Fibroscan / Liver slides evaluation - I never would have known anything about this if it had not been mentioned by someone on this forum. Thgank You, whomever you are. Night to all.

well, been accused of lots of things, but never nazi before....does someone miss their brewskys???
chuckle, well so be it,
I guess perspective is everything, attend at the death bed of a couple folks who went from this, and you are never quite the same.
for the record, I never got the idea from anyone "not" to treat at stage 3 or 4....
It's hard to know exactly how to word things anyway, but's it's good that each person has their own voice, some calm and steady generals, some more sargents in yer face private!!
thank God there are even people willing to take the time, however apt/funny or not/informed they may be or not.
It's all acts of love, or attempts on some level.
I guess when people share their symptoms we all presume a newbie will either have the intelligence to read more than one response, horror story, or explaination before reaching conclusions one way or the other because there's way too much at stake for that knee jerk of a response.
Something tells me that most incapable of processing would not be seeking out this kind of forum for answers much anyway...(except for the occasional jerk off artist who breaks the monotony of disease dialouge with his comin' on the bobbies tales....at least there's that...)

PSP: beware of a wolf in a sheep skin is my last coment on this subject -

Are you referring to the fact that this is your THIRD screen name on Med Help, because Med Help booted you off before for similar ad hominem attacks? And don't try the "I was defending you" bit because the reason you got thrown off the first time was for mouthing off to administration in a very public manner.
Boy does Jim have this Chick down pat. Everywhere she goes with that big mouth of hers, can't help but get her in trouble. You need to take some Chill Pills Lady!! Veggie doesn't have to be on treatment to have a tantrum. She is like that on the Natch. LMAO I've known this broad for years now and she really does have some serious mental issues. So for the ones who do not already know, beware!!
Oh, and Veggie apologize to Jim? or anyone for that matter? Don't hold your breath.

Wouldnt be much point to this forum if we all agreed with each other all the time.
Part of joy of participateing is that it makes you think.
Its a bit of a pity that the Alcohol threads get a little toooo interesting sometimes.
But at least no can say there isnt any passion.
