RE: Hep C Results vs Automimmune Blood Disorder

Gidday cdnab,

It is late and I am very tired, but I will just say this for now.  The young chap was asking questions and jumping to conclusions and rather than shoot him down in flames I felt it best to just explain where I felt he was, rather than hag his error.  On the issue of auto-immune disease in HepC testing results I have just answered that briefly in your other thread, and hope that is sufficient for now.

Thanks and good luck with attaining answers in your own situation.

Cheers,

Brendan.

Hi everyone,

Further to my original post on my situation i was reading the various topics in the discussion forum looking to similar situations to mine for advice.

In the linked discussion below, the original poster is quoted as saying "So after reading it looks more like a possibly that I have an autoimmune blood disorder, seeing how both AB tests came back as indeterminate 3 months apart" in the 2nd newest post.

http://www.activeboard.com/forum.spark?aBID=114015&p=3&topicID=35402162


The poster had 2 indeterminate anti-HCV antibody results and 1 negative PCR RNA result and believes that he has an automimmune blood disorder. Now no one really refuted him which doesn't necesserily mean he's correct but how can he possibly come to the conclusion that he might have an automimmune blood disorder? By the looks of it he is simply negative? Or perhaps he might have had the virus at some point and cleared (assuming he had some antibodies but the test came up indeterminate).

Can someone please clear up the link (or lack there of) between Hep C and an automimmune blood disorder.

Thanks
