Newly diagnosed?

If you have recently received a diagnosis of HCV I'm sure you feel the need to find out more. My personal recommendation is to talk to the people on the Helpline at the Hepatitis C Trust as soon as you can, before you talk to anyone else. You will be able to say what you want, how you want, at your own pace. You can ask any question you want, they have been there, they know and they will listen to you. Try to avoid the temptation to Google for information. To save you the first step, the Helpline number is 0845 223 4424 or 020 7089 6221. They are open Monday to Friday from 10.30 to 4.30.

When you feel up to it, read some posts on this forum. Everyone here has felt what you are feeling.
