Hello and welcome to the forum... You say your seeing a liver doctor? What I don't understand is why this doctor is even talking about treating with Interferon with somebody who has never treated before. There are now and has been Interferon free treatments for all genotypes and are very easy it seems to take, hardly any sides and only 12 weeks of treatment in most cases. It doesn't seem hard to work while on these new meds. Good luck to you. Wishing you the best.
