Hep C anxiety

Hi there

Not fully educated about hep c but have had some worries of late through anxiety... hope someone can help with my scenario here... so i broke up with my gf 2 week's ago... just before that I was giving her a foot massage, about an hour before i gave the massage she was walking outside with no shoes on... anyway while i was giving the massage i was biting my nails... there could have been anything on those feet and i put my fingers in my mouth - can i catch Hep C from this?

What if everything is an illusion and nothing exists? In that case, I definitely overpaid for my carpet.-Woody Allan

Joking aside the odds are in your favor,millions of scenarios like that occur everyday in America and Hep C is not an epidemic.

Blood to blood transmission only.
Please don't come back with a "what if" question. Just do your reading and check the OCD forum.
