joint pain and muscle w/o treatment

Does anyone out there have joint pain and muscle pain and never had treatment.  Sometimes I can't walk well after I have been on my feet for awhile.  I don't rhematoid.  I don't have sharp pains.  Sometimes my leg will feel like it has lost circulation(but has not) or like someone is pinching off the blood circulation.  It seems to me that alot people have similar symptoms but are all treatment.  I have never been on treatment and I have this and Hep C.  I just would like to know where to go from here.  Which doctor should I go to next?  I am very discouraged.  I am very frustrated no one seems to have an answer including the doctors.  If anyone has any answeres lay it on me!!  I am open for any suggestions.  Thanks!!

Are you SURE you are open to any answers?  I've read your posts telling people here they should learn more about their disease and telling people they can be cured by natural medicine.  Seems you think you already have all the answers.   Maybe what you mean is that nobody has the answers you want to HEAR.

There are PLENTY of answers out there if you REALLY want them.

So how about you start with some answers that will make it easier for us to help you IF that is what you truly want.

If you would post what genotype you are, if you have had a biopsy to assess what atage of liver damage you are and if you have had a viral load test .. and how long ago these were done.

Would help to know what advice you have already been given from the doctors that you are not happy with.

IF you are only looking at natural remedies for treatment, then they will NOT cure you.  They will only help you to manage your Hep C and only to a point.  Believe me .. if we could use natural remedies and not have to take these drugs .. don't you think we all would???  Think about that.  I'm laying that on you.

If you want to discuss natural remedies vs treatment and you truly want answers, okay.  Ask your questions and be prepared to get answers.
