I contracted Hep C from a FB back in 2013 and had to wait 6 months to see if I could clear it myself, unfortunately I couldn't and what followed was the worst 12 months of my Life. In April 2014 I started treatment for what was supposed to be 72 weeks, side effects included insomnia, aneameia, acid reflux, loss of sex drive to the point I didn't even wank for a whole month and severe dermatitis and not to mention the constant headaches and flu like symptoms once a week when I had to inject. I had to stop the treatment after 48 weeks as I started getting sever tendinitis in my feet that literally meant it was painful to walk any distance and stand too long.
Granted nowadays treatment is for a shorter period and less sever side effects but I wouldn't wish HepC on anyone,
