"Hi, all I'm Tim from the daytona beach fl. area, I've was diag. with hep-c in 1999. I've done treatments four times in 6 years and which none has helped me. I keep my head up most of the time but their are times when this dragon can keep you down. I moved to fl. just about 2 months ago, so I was checking things out in the computer world and came across this site and thought wow a site for people with hep-c and another good thing, it's about bikers also, I thought how great this is. I'm a biker from up north and couldn't take that cold anymore and decided to move south. I'm going to orlando at the end of aug. to be a ginnie/pig and test a new med. for hep-c. everyone wish me luck. it's hard finding anyone with hep-c down here in fl. due too I dont know anyone. so if anyone would like to write me ,do so at pastoner17404@yahoo.com hope too hear from you.

"My name is Russ. I discovered i had Hep C 5 years ago when i became disoriented and crashed an airplane, I then discovered that i had cirrhosis bad. I was told i would be dead in six months without a transplant. It took me 3 years of treatment. i couldnt even get off the couch, much less ride my bike. i took rivabarin and peginterferon. I took drugs to also maintain my blood count, i got up everyday mad because i was still alive, but slowly i got better.

"Today im getting ready to go to Conesville and i feel human again. i guess what i'm trying to say to everyone is don't give up. you can win. i am hep C free. and i still have my own damn liver. i realize some day i'll still need a liver but some day is a long way off compared to the 6 mos they said i would live. Just fight like hell you can win. im 50 this year and i'm not done yet.

"Hi:

"Just wanted to say thanks for the site. I was diagnosed last year still not sure how to feel about it? Doc says i still have a healthy liver and should consider treatment????? sounds like hardcore side effects.

"Anyway thanks again for your site. Doug, Thomasville NC"

"For several years now I have been looking for a site that Screams Me.. I am a Hep C survivor from Drug Use and homemade tattoos..I cleaned up my life finally, just before I kicked it..I then took interferon and ribatron for 6 months. It made me very sick and was sick for a long time. Now what I have is chronic pain..Severe and no energy and this is 4 almost 5 years later. What do I do?? I was on heavy painkillers and they worked but I become too dependant on them and took myself off them. I stil have children to raise and a grandson..Im just looking for a bit of pain free and some energy..Can you give some ideas.

"congrats to all, i have hep-c and had a transplant 10-20-01. i just found your site and give everybody a big hug for coming out with a site to let people know there are people who help and answers questions about it. when i was first diagnosed i had nobody to ask questions but my dr. i have talked to new patients that didn't have a clue, but the answers i give them seems to help some. if there is any questions that i could help with please e-mail me."
