That is how I learned that I was Hep C positive was from my Dx of Lichen Planus. It is a rare autoimmune disease caused by the HepC. The it was explained to me, immune system gets confused between virus and the skin cells. Every time I damaged my skin, just before it looked like it was going to final phase of healing, it turned into raised bloody plaque. It took massive doses of steroids to bring it under control for me. My lower legs are still scarred up from it. It attacked my extremities but left my torso alone. It was a miserable for me. Very itchy and ugly to look at.
