easy to hide i would say.
- in many hospitals you get released after 2 hrs (at least where i've been) and afterwards one can (but does not have to) rest at home. But at least you should not move around too much, and carrying anything heavy or so should be avoided.
- the bandage/plaster can be very discrete (skin color), and after day 1 you don't even need one.
although i am usually for being very open (and un-apolegetic) about a medical condition (silence/fear/shamre are very dangerious) i did a similar thing (=not telling anybody) because certain people would worry and suffer too much if they knew.
so all the best and good luck.
sorry i missed the geno type....lots of folks have 2a...it's not as bad as 1a...billy
the biopsy is no big deal...do you have hep c? do you know your genotype?maybe give us a little more info.....it is a good idea to get a biopsy so you know whats up...and just don't tell anyone you will need someone to drive you back after the bx......billy
