Hi everybody, Im a 21 year old college student who has had hep.c for about 6 years, due to IV use.
I found out recently that I have stage 1 grade 1 fibrosis. I have been drinking fairly heavily for sometime, and have recently quit. I am starting treatment within the next week and I am ready for it but am afraid it is going to affect my schooling??? will this be the case??? also one thing that terrorfies me is the fact that I have this fibrosis at such a young age, what are the chances that this will lead to cirrhosis?? when? in my 30's? 40's ? 50's? I have no idea, and i guess I just wants to know that there is a chance to have a long and happy life..... if somebody could please reply I would appreciate it so deeply, I am very down, and very scared.
