Found an article that may interest you.

Curing hepatitis C virus (HCV) may not end the risk of liver-related symptoms. About 1 in 10 of those who experience what is known as cryoglobulins when they start hep C treatment are at risk of relapse of HCV-related symptoms within two years, MedPage Today reports.

Not many folks hanging around here these days so you may not get many responses.

For myself no I do not. I had hep c for 37 years cured 3 years ago but still have cirrhosis for 10.5 years now.

Best of luck to you.

Thank you,  Consider yourself lucky not to have CYRO. Congrats on your cure!
Yes I do consider myself very fortunate that I am in relatively good health for a 60 y/o with long standing cirrhosis I am in better shape than many.

Best of luck to you
