shellywinters posted like she is a doctor writing a presciption :)
although supplements are good they will not help with what you describe. Be seen by a good Hepatologist (liver specialist)
Good luck
i am sympathetic that u are suffering these medical issues. i am not a medical person and i suspect that shellywinters is not either. there is some excellent advice given on this site. at the same time just because something is natural does not make it safe especially for those of us with hcv. please see a medical specialist for your conditions before following advice from a stranger even with the best intent. joint pain can be a side effect of hcv altho severe sounds extreme. as for the sores i would consult a dermatologist. wishing u the best, babs
Take 400 micrograms of Selenium daily. CVS has the plant derived selenium yeast from. Its $13.00 It will reduce viral load and protect your liver from damage
You will need to also pick up Vitamin D to boost you depleted levels. HCV cases Vitamin D3 deficiencies. This will help ease some of the symptoms and prevent Liver damage.
L-ornithine will also help clean your liver. ITs is a natural substance already found in the foods we eat. Only take it before bed and by morning pain should be reduced or gone.
Take everything for 30 days then let me know how you are doing. I have more suggestions after your 1st 30 days
