Gersh, Sorry to hear about the Hep C. Interferon works, but a lot of folks can't tolerate it. Naomi Judd has been taking it for more than a decade and is still pretty feisty. Nupogen really helps the tolerance, but it is not an insurance approved combination, so most doctors won't prescribe it. There should be a vaccine in a year or two, not that that does much for you today. Transplant is the last choice. My mother had a liver and kidney transplant on Halloween, 1995, and she's still going strong. But the transplant doesn't make the Hep C go away, it just makes it go back to square one on destroying your organs. So, we're looking for the vaccine for the long haul cure.
