Challenges To Hep C Treatment
Hepatitis C is a complex virus to treat as there are multiple genotypes to the virus. While most sufferers have a single dominant genotype of the disease, it is possible to have more than one at the same time. Each of these genotypes require a different treatment approach, and this is why it is important to work with a team that will take the individualized approach with your treatment. But even the treatments need to be fully understood before going forward with things.
For example, many of the HCV treatments will have side effects such as fatigue, headaches, nausea, as well as insomnia, and all of these can significantly impact the quality of life of the patient. But one of the things that will really impact a patient is not seeking treatment for it due to stigma from friends, family, or others. You need to take care of you, and that includes getting the right treatment from our caring team.
