How can you have it twice? Were you treated and the virus was found undetectable? It does not go away without treatment. I am your age.

We'll, it went away. Then I came down with it about a year later.

I have never heard of it going away. Do you mean the symptoms went away?

Hi blueharp.

Sorry to hear you're suffering whatever the cause.

Have you seen your doc..find out why you're not feeling that good?

Then you'll know what to do for the best.

Hope you get some clarity/advice treatment if you need it so you can start to feel better.

Best wishes for your recovery.

Rethinking..maybe what you're referring to is not hep c but the bad effect you can get from dirty needles, you could get that and it goes away but doesn't mean you got hep c..it's different..i know as I've had it and hep c too

Have you ever been tested or d'you just think you have it?

Whatever, hope you feel better,get the help/advice you need.
