Normal relationship
I have lost the love of my life as a result of my diagnoses.. I just wonder after treatment praying it is succesful. Is there any hope of having a normal relationship, or will this always be a topic that has to be discussed during all my dating.
sorry for your loss. it seems to me that u were not the love of her life as rough as that may be to digest. i believe she was looking for an excuse and that you have had inklings of this for a while. it must be so hard as u go thru the pain of dealing with hcv. it is still better to go thru tx with out a spouse than with one who is not fully on board and supportive. hang in there and put yourself and children first. best, babs824
yes lovely livers are harder to find than lovely lovers!

Better you lose her than your liver. New partners are easier to come by than livers. Good luck with your treatment.
I hope everything gets better for you, going through relationship trouble while your going through this s*cks i know that from experience. Stay strong if you need to talk vent for any reason come here and post or u can mail me here i will listen!
Im bad, the love of your life is an idiot, she probably looks good,but doesn't have the brains or the heart to be in a committed relationship. I too lost the "love of my life", and realize it never really was what I thought it was or else we would still be together.
Your family looks beautiful, put your energy into your kids is most important. Never mind an adult who cant hold it together for someone the supposedly love.
good luck

If antibody tests is the only test done, you have about a 20% chance of have cleared the Virus on your on. You are not going to know until you have a PCR. In other words, you have about a 20% chance of not even having HCV
I researched the hell out of this but she didn't care.
I guess the point I was trying to make is that the "love of our lives" would certainly care about a sickness you have ..then take the time to learn all she could and then support you thru your difficult time.
Everyone reacts differently and it sounds like her fear was.greater than her need to educate herself.
All the best...and hope it works out.....BTW..great lookin kids in you profile pic..I would imagine they love their dad .

My test was through antybody I have had two independant blood tests. Dealing with insurance before I can even get to the specialist.
but truth is I can't control her feelings. I researched the hell out of this but she didn't care. Maybe after my treatment she might feel different, I don't know, she should be standing by me not making me the enemy. "confused too nygirl7
If she didn't care, it isn't worth it. I don't care how hot she is....not kidding.
Something tells me your next relationship will be worth finding. It's out there bro don't give up.

Sorry to hear you felt you lost the love of your life..so to speak.. because of HCV. I do hope she took the time to learn all she could about what you have and how the disease is transmitted .or more importantly how it is not usually transmitted.
I believe you will find the majority of folks here will say they have been living with a spouse for many years without transmitting the disease......,that is the case for me after 35 years infected.
Welcome...

I dont know why it is that big a topic anyway.......most spouses/significant otheres never get the disease - it's not really sexualy transmitted it's blood to blood. Also people get it from improper sterilization from many years ago, transfusions, dental procedures, medical procedures........
It sounds like your partner needs some education. It makes no sense to me.

Your post it leads me to believe your knowledge of HCV is lacking. If your Treatment is successful you are SVR (Cured) and therefore no need to bring it up. You will always have the antibodies just like Measles antibodies.
There is nothing stopping you from having a normal relationship now.
I wander how much knowledge “The Love of your Life “ has about HCV. She may be scared to death.
It may be a Blessing in Disguise. I’ve been married to the Love of my Life for almost 30 years and we take our vows “In Sickness and Health” serious.
How was you diagnosed, antibody test or PCR?
