(but sure like the game) haha any way i opted for no meds due to a liver disease !!! hep C hits me in spells !! like say once a month for two or so days!! very weak,and sleepy,and plays with yer mind!! (like a guilt trip)) just a short not to ya!! dont let it trip ya out !! if yer young you have a hell of a chance of beating it!! if not you can still have a very productive life!! one other note if ya have a wife she has a 15% chance of having it !! ive been with my wife over 20 yrs and she has been tested !!!NEG good luck ! dont let it trip ya out youll be fine !! peace lab rat

Anyone ever heard of a strain that was developed by a hep cat to combat the symtoms of liver problems caused by Hep-c? It was tested by a group of diverse hep sufferers.

It's called "Free Leonard" and it G-13 x Butterscoth Hawaian. Rumor is it will be in a few coops soon.

You sound like me 10 years ago.: I'm 63, got hepB in my 20's & hepC in my 40's, hepB&C in my 60's was going to add up to hepD eath not my 70's! So i did the dumb thing I went on a year of Interferon, it about killed me, but with the love and support of my wife of 35 years and MEDICAL MARIJUANA i'm living a hep free life. P.S. my wife and my 23 year old son are hep. neg. NO ALCOHOL FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS DID'NT HURT! DON'T DRINK!! IT'S NOT COOL TO BE COOL, GET IT????
