A member asked:
Why do only some people get medical treatment for hep c?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several reasons : Every patient with hepatitis c infection does not need treatment. The decision on treatment depends on the viral load and the amount of liver damage as well as what strain of hepatitis c a person has. Often some patients cannot tolerate the treatment because of side effects.
