Good luck Carol,
You may get more responses if you can get your typing situation worked out. Try typing slower, and correcting misspelled words to make it easier for others to understand you. There is a forum in the U.K called hepCnomads
.co.uk
You might also want to look at that site.
Good luck,

P.S. We are not professionals, we are simply people whose lives are touched by hep C.
Basically eating healthy, organic food, no red meat, limited salt intake and foods low in iron would be a start.
Avoid processed foods.Freshly prepared or raw is best.
If you are very overweight, you will need to exercise more, eat less, eat healthy and drink lots of water.
And of course, absolutely no alcohol.Its bad for your liver and worse with hep C.
Beets and artichokes are said to be good for the liver.
I know there's more, try doing a search.
You should ask your doctor for further advice about losing weight.
