Hi are you saying that while you tested positive for HCV, there was no viral load? There are people who are able to clear it. Their body fights it off so while they test positive for exposure there is no geno type or viral load because it is gone.
I hope you don't have it but if you do there are new medications that are much shorter and easier to take then interferon was
Good luck

Have you been tested for HIV? Have you had an inmmunological panel done to check lymphocytes subsets values etc?
I just looked up elevated pancreatic amylase, and that can cause symptoms of diabetes. So that part sounds solved, but why the elevated enzymes with a clean ct scan and MRCP, so I would make them double check you for tumor markers. Go see the right dr just to make sure you don't have cancer. Then make sure you don't have one of those pseudo cysts. I have seen a lot of those in my line of work. Get second opinions, this is your life! I know you are in pain. My heart goes out for you!
(And FYI, I've been out of work for about a year, so I'm a bit rusty... So forgive me if none of what I said helped. I really do hope I helped you, but even more so, I hope you already have your answers and are feeling better now.)

I was just reading thru the questions to get my mind off myself.. (Been dealing with pretty bad panic and depression for past few days) but I think I might have a thought which makes sense... I'm a RN, but currently not working... When I worked in inner city hospital, they made sure to rule out HIV , so I'm sure you have ruled this out... So then I got to thinking, you may have diabetes type 1 or 2.. I'm just thinking that is what is causing the fungal infections, mouth sores which also may be fungal, the weight loss, and stomach issues!
Of course, then I'm thinking... I'm sure they have already checked you for DM. So another thought about the fungal. Maybe you and your partner are swapping a yeast infection back and forth... A lot of women don't know when they have one.
Stress could be a root cause of stomach issues and can mess up your immunity.
have you checked your lymphocyte count ands wbc's.did you have contact withanyone intimately that could have been related to the onset of this problem.were you tested for other issues related to hepc and ebv?
Anyone, anything? I need help with this.
