Subject: new to all this

Hi everyone. Have read your messages and am amazed!! Amazed for several reasons. 1st I just found out about all this hepatitis stuff and my head is spinning so I go to the internet to see if I can learn something...I find this site and think cool. You people seem like you got it all figured out. Some of the things you talk about like the viral load and genotype or the 1 b thing I never heard mentioned at all before. I went to my regular Dr-- he said my liver enzymes are high--sends me too a liver Dr--he says to get a liver biopsy--so I do. Nothing is really explained to me. I get my results tomorrow and I have so many questions. I'm glad I found this site cause I didn't even know what I should ask him, so hopefully I will now. I ususally freeze when I go to the Dr. and just do whatever they say to do. Guess Im gonna have to change. Well, thanks all of you for teaching me a thing or two, I would like to keep coming back just to say hi. You all sure know how to cheer a gal up. See ya.

I don't post often, but I do come to this site everyday. Everyone here knows something about what you are going through. Their combined knowledge is incredible, I have learned so much. Along with terrific people, there will be posts about the latest breaking news in treatments and studies. Good luck at the doctor, ask every question you have, you are paying for the services, so don't be afraid.
Hang in there. Cathi
