Hi to all, I'm going to be starting treatment in the new year and am
confused if it's the right thing to do.
I have geno type 1, my last ultrasound showed my liver was getting
fatty so my doctor checked some things  mainly my cholesterol and it

I did not know that nic was already being used so I changed mine to

1st shot on 26th, ok so far.  Only slight flu symptoms.
Just a little body aches and feverish feeling but not too severe yet.  Not
quite as bad as expected.
I had almost the same symptoms before treatment so I don't know whether it's

I saw the gastroenterologist today.  He got back the results of the blood

insurance should not deter those that seek treatment.  Nor ...
