| I Was diagnosed with Hep "c" about 2 1/2 years ago, I had no insurance and
was not able to work. Just recently I finally decided to go to a specialist
whether I would ever be able to pay all or not.They did several test and oh
by the way I was going to be accepted in a study where I would get the
Interferone treatments at no cost, then the results from the tests came
back and they determined that I also have cirrosis of the liver, and a
disease that I had never heard of Hemochromatosis, this causes your body
and liver to store all of the excess iron instead of the normal flushing
out of the iron that your system normally should do. Can't say that I am
not alittle discouraged, and alarmed!!!! Anyone out there ever heard of the
combination of these diseases before?
