Hi Karen,

It's nice to see you again! I hope everything is going great for you. How are you feeling? I'm hoping the strength and good times are treating you right!

I'm so happy to hear this news. I think including that test in the standard physical protocol is an excellent idea. We both know there must be 10's of thousands of people that haven't got a clue that they're carrying around this quiet beast inside them. This is an excellent advance in the treatment picture!! Times, they are improvin.....  smile

My friend called today to let me know that she went for a general physical which included basic blood work.  There was one test she did not recognize...HCV.  When asked about this, the doctor told her that running a test for hep c is now standard protocol for her age group...

I was amazed and very pleased-nice to see that progress continues.
