Could I have gotten Hep C?

[noghre111]

Hi everyone.  My boyfriend is recently diagnosed w/ HepC (a few days ago).  I have done research and know that HepC is only transferred by blood to blood contact and not casual contact.  Yesterday, i was bleeding and he helped me wash it off with water and put pressure on it to make the bleeding stop.  it is still very new to us and it was only after he had helped me, I started worrying if I got HepC from him.  He doesn't seem to have any open sores or cuts on his hands.  My question is, could I have gotten hepC from him?

thanks

Hep c is passed blood to blood.
Many of us have had it for years without knowing yet our partners and children did not contract it.
Don't worry, you're fine.

hrsepowrguy: thank you.  

We are both doing our best so I don't get hepC from him.  I understand saliva, casual contact, hugging, protected monogomous sex etc is okay.  One last question I have, will I get it if I get semen on my body?

No risk at all, he was not bleeding, his blood would have to get in your blood stream not yours in his blood stream

Have a great day
