I have been recently diagnosed with Hep C. It happened by accident, I donated blood and found out that I had it. I guess I am lucky, because I haven't had any symptoms. I just have started the blog (5 min ago) because I just couldn't hold it inside anymore and then I found yours. It is great, thank you, you actually have given me a new direction. Instead of being angry and lost I will try to use my blog to describe my story to encourage others amd may be support myself through the journey. I start my treatment in october so we'll see how it will go. Hi, Ron

I believe my white blood count did start dropping - but you know, it is now so long ago I cannot remember specifically. And I wouldn't know how low is too low - I am not medically trained (or competent) I always advise people to check with their medical team who should be providing you with that kind of supportive information. That way you will get information that applies specifically to your own personal circumstances. Wishing you well and a good outcome on your treatment. Ron Hi Jewell

It's unbelievable that you were struggling without a diagnosis for 6 years amidst all that contact with medical people. It confirms what I have seen before (and experienced myself) - HCV is very hard to diagnose as most diagnosticians don't seem to add up the symptoms correctly and think HCV. Good luck with the blog. I have added a link to it from my blogroll on the right. Wishing you well Ron Hi Maureen
