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?

If you want to get an accurate result quickly then take the RNA test.It's accurate from 2 weeks+.All the best.

also anyone that were in the same boat as myself that recieved a negative or positive hep c result...please anybody!!:(

can someone honestly say that(snorting) is the only 100 PERCENT possible way they were infected? any users that snorted cocaine once and were infected? it seems the majority of those who are infected are IVDU...

It's not about dirt. Dirt doesn't pass hep C, blood does.

It's about cutting the inside of the nostril and getting minute amounts of blood on the straw. Hep C is so tiny, that it can pass in blood which is unseen by the human eye.
When the straw is passed to the next person, they can do the same.
That's the theory I heard.

You can google around and find it if you like.

Good luck.

where abouts is this claim orpanedhawk? also can someone explain the difference between a rolled bank note and a plastic straw when it comes to snorting?.i would have thought the straw would be safer considering how filthy money is...
