This is a hepatitis C forum. I don't think we will be able to help you with this. Try to post your question again on the hepatitis A forum.

Good luck,

Marcia

I am confussed.  Do you no longer have it? 15 to 20% of people will clear it on there own.
It seems I've had alot of joint pain, knees the most since I finished tx. My joints were hurting before tx but now some of them are really painful.
