Hi Karen,
Don't feel alone! We are here! Sometimes it takes a bit for us to repond to a post.
What's going on and how can we help? I assume you were diagnosed with HCV, in January?
What do you mean "deathbed"??!!
Is it a hep specialist you saw 3 days ago? What is he telling you?
Maybe things are not quite a bleak as it feels. But I know the feeling you speak of!
Post us what's going on and we'll gladly see how we might be able to help. C.

Just feeling very alone. Went to get a blood test in January for Insurance & bam...seems I'm on my deathbed. Haven't smoked for 20 days now & saw a specialist 3 days ago & haven't drank since then. Future seeming bleak.
Sorry to be a downer - hope everyone gets thru' this ok.
