Hepatitis C is a serious and chronic viral liver illness with, at present, only a 25 per cent chance of a cure. For the majority of those who have it, therefore, hepatitis C is a problem to be lived with for the rest of their lives. This book is not only for those who have hepatitis C but for the health professionals who treat them. It contains information concerning the full range of treatment options, counselling options and treatments, both conventional and alternative, including Chinese medicine. It emphasizes the psychological aspects of coping with hepatitis C and includes comments from hepatitis C sufferers.
Researchers have continued to make dramatic strides in helping the millions of Americans who suffer from Hepatitis C since the book's first publication, and each new edition has kept up with the most recent findings.
