not to take those medicine. and now i feel there i have been used as guinea pig. later after 1 year it came activated again though my ALT tests and my fibroscan were coming very good. what i meant Connie Welch why my doctor asked me to go for liverbiopsy when my case wasnt that worse to touch only last year in the end 2019 my fibroscan wasnt done he asked me to go for liver biopsy instead of fibroscan. when on this page im learning that fibroscan been introduced after liver biopsy. im in very
me. i went to the the specialist with few of my tests he started giving me tenofo-B (though he declared me inactive carrier state and hotel didnt accept me saying that im active carrier state-i dont know on what measures then i have to forget about my dream of becoming chef). Though i feel he shouldnt touch my case but anyhow after having tenofo-B my DNA was deactivated. even than my doctor asked me to continue tenofo-B. after 10 months he asked me not to take- he asked me precociously not to
Fibro scan shouldn't be done seeing you post of 2012 @ Connie Welch when you are saying fibroscan is there. my case diagnosed when i was conceiving for my 1st child. and as per my test the DNA wasn't active. i didnt touched my case but my family was protected and boosted timely. i did my Food & Beverage management Diploma and started my internship their i got to know that i have to get through some test that are formalities. informing the hotel about the positivity of my hep b case they rejected
Hi Melinda, So sorry to hear you had a difficult time with this. You are right, NOT everyone is the same or has the same experience. I was just expressing my experience. Majority of Hep C patients I have talked to did not have a bad experience, but there was indeed soreness and some discomfort. Hopefully you won't ever have to do another one, or if needed hopefully the Fibroscan will be available. This new test is be a tremendous help and ease for all liver patients, since there is no surgical procedure, only specialized ultra sound. All the Best to you~ Connie
I had one in 2012 and it was the worst experience of my life. Felt like my insides were being sucked out of my body and horrible throbbing pain that lasted thru that day and extremely sore for the next few weeks. So, everyone is NOT the same. So glad you didn't have a problem. Maybe because I have cirrhosis there was just hardened bits of liver being sucked up, but it's not a pleasant experience and I'm not looking forward to doing it again.
