Welcome to the Hepatitis C: Post Treatment Issues community

[MH Community Mgr]

About This Community:

This forum is for those who have taken HCV treatment to discuss any lingering or new health issues that may have been caused by the Hepatitis C virus itself or may be related to treatment for Hepatitis C. Some examples are autoimmune conditions, previous medical conditions exacerbated by the virus or the treatment, liver damage, and inflammation of the joints

Looking forward to everyone's posts and participation.

No need to be shy ~ I've posted the first post on your new community.

Best,

Hi I have been working on my health doing a lot of research to help me.  I recently received a juicer as a gift, I am juicing every day.  I hope it helps.  All in all I feel pretty good.  My only lingering issue seems to be my conception of time. It is way off.  I guess it could be age though I did not notice it until I was on tx.  Time seemed to go slow and then speed up. On tx I noticed it along with a super increased sense of smell which I read could be brain related..  The sensitive nose went away along with most of my other sx.
The only one that remains is the  conception of time problem.
It is better but still seems off
Thank you
Dee

I don't have the itching.Everything else is same. I'm three years post tx. I'm lost. Any advice?

I'm working with my diet more and finding foods that help me and some that hurt me.  Can others share their experience?

Foods that make me feel horrible the next day:  high fat meats (sausage, hot dogs, corned beef, steak, cheeseburgers), pizza
Foods that give me a big fatigue crash:  bananas
Foods that help me:  protein (eggs, hummus, peanut butter), lentils, fruits and veggies
I switched to soy milk in the spring.  I'm not sure if that's doing anything or not, but from all the anti-inflammatory diets I read, it seems like something to try
Please let us know what you've found...
Thanks
Jeannine

I agree with you, I am grateful to be cured

Thank you so much for your post. I had similar problems with the NADH after a while so have decided while it did help me when my brain was really foggy, I am better now, so do not need it.
I agree with you, it takes time.
I really appreciate you sharing about the bladder, I am experiencing similar symptoms so will reduce the serrapeptase a bit.

Thank you again for your help

Thanks for checking in.
I know what you mean about being grateful to finally be HCV free. Our bodies have taken a lot of abuse over the years with that stinkin' virus.
I have my ups and downs too though I believe my supplements and activities have helped some.
Hopefully we will all be better in the coming year.
Keep in touch.
