hep c contracted by sharing rolled up bill for snorting cocaine?

[worried_sick79]

i attended a friends party over 2 weeks ago and did something really stupid.i snorted coke with 2 of her friends sharing a rolled up bill/banknote.i only did a few lines but now im terrified i may have contracted hep c through such a stupid,drunken incident.also not sure if this would make a difference but i only placed the bill at my nostril not inside .there was no visible blood as well. i just want to know my potential risk or no risk in this situation.im very scared and will test if need be but please can anyone ease my mind until then?

PS

just scare mongering!"

If that's what you think then why are you bugging us with the same question over and over especially when several people have told you that is definitely indeed how they got it?

Several of my gang is no longer here. We never did IVDUs together yet somehow at least three of them are dead now of liver disease and another committed suicide but most likely would have passed away from it too and I am pretty far advanced.

Yeah the chances are possible indeed.

For someone with such OCD I am having a hard time how you would do such a thing as snort coke out of a straw...I would think the coke would have made your anxiety INSANE!!!!!!!!!

Love you Goofydad.  Quite a visual!  

Everyone else - I am pretty sure from experience that hep c is transmitted very efficiently through the nose.  My personal story is a weekly poker party where everyone passed the "tray".  This was a group of about 10.  7 of us got hep.  Can't google that.  We need a future vacine for hep c.  

Please be kind to each other.  Riba rage anyone?  Try to be patient with the fear of others.  We are the same, all of us.  No one is a more precious soul than another.

Man. Blowing up a rubber after the fact? Why don't I ever find wild chicks like that? I hope you let it loose to  fly around the bedroom sending contrails of spewey. How cool would that be?

And yes - nasal transmission happens. I know.

No worries, many of us are in the middle of a very tough and trying treatment that has some nasty side effects, just accept the excellent advice you have been given and follow through with it. Good luck to you and use this expirience to your advantage in the future.
