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?

You have already been given the best advice,if this situation is of concern to you then go and test and be done with it.You were given advice from some of the top answers on this forum, 1.That it was a slight risk 2.To have a test.

because ive read on most hep c sites that is not a likely route for submission compared to iv drug use,blood transfusions etc.. i just want someone to make it clear cut and honestly say they contracted it from cocaine only.why is there not enough evidence for such a transmission? just scare mongering!:( ,even a dr on here said you would be more than likely struck with a meteorite then to be infected by intranasal transmission only.im just researching.like anyone else for that matter.

Its quite clear your here to play games, please get tested for more then HCV.

I am not judging those who have, but I have never used IV drugs.  I have plenty of skeletons in my closet so I'm not in a position to judge.  ;)

NO ONE here can tell you whether or not you were infected with HCV in the situation you describe.  NO ONE.

"im beggining to wonder if there is alot of denial as well...and thats not to be rude.that is fact."

Please tell me how you have come to the conclusion that is a "fact".

can anyone submit evidence of contracting hep c through intranasal use only?? i already know i need to be tested for peace of mind only but it seems no one can answer that question. im beggining to wonder if there is alot of denial as well...and thats not to be rude.that is fact. even on the cdc they dont have enough evidence for such transmission...so im just getting very confused with all this...
