Test for Hep C
My ex-husband (4-5 yrs ago) was recently diagnosed with Hep-C. I'm also having many symptoms of the disease and was told last year at an Urgent Clinic that my liver was slightly enlarged. I'm trying to get tested now but am really scared that I have it. I ended up in the hospital over Christmas with what I thought was flu but I had just taken some night flu medication that I now think made me toxic. I am really scared. What do I do next?
Hep C is not easily transmitted through sex. Blood transfusion and Intravenous drug use are the primary ways to transmit.
the only way to know is through testing. Call 'request a test' at 1888--732-2348. Ask for a hep c antibody test.

See if I didn't have so many symptoms and with this doctor telling me that my liver is enlarged, I wouldn't be worrying at all. I have a history of genital herpes and could easily have received the disease through that means.
