Would like a simple explanation of this disease.
//////////
Simply put, it's a viral disease that causes inflammation of the liver.
You might want to use the google option if you want a more detailed
explanation.

If you have hep C, there is one of the "dummy" books on it - "Living
with Hepatitis C for Dummies". I just picked it up at the library (even
though I've been on treatment since February) - but it has a lot of
straightforward, good info. Like the guys said, there's lots of info on
the net too, but if you prefer an easy to read book.....

I have "Hep C for Dummies", and three other books on hepatitis C,
(two are older books and do not cover the most current
treatments, but the information about hepatitis is still very
good).  I am willing to mail one, any, or all of these books to
anyone who wants them.  just email me at puffler at wowway dot
com.

If no one wants them, they are going to a used book store soon,
and that just seems a waste, so someone holler and I'll send em
on to you!

The titles are:

Hepatitis C - the first year  by
Cara Bruce and LIsa Montanarelli

Dr Melissa Palmer's Guide to
Hepatitis & Liver Disease
by Melissa Palmer, MD

Living with Hepatitis C for dummies
by Nina L Paul, PhD

The Hepatitis C Handbook
by Matthew Dolan

LOts of good info in these books, I hope someone wants them

lots of online info about that.  better worded and less long winded than
many of us could provide, it makes for easier understanding.  google
Hepatitis C or go to medline or any of the medical online information
sources.

hope that helps

Uh, it's rilly, rilly Bad. They'd call it Hepatitis-B for bad, except B
was already taken.
