You probably still have detectable levels of hep c virus still in your system. Being truly cured means NO detectable hep c viruses at all.

Hey Ivery, got that yesterday brother..! Thx again.
Hey, I can't donate either anymore, unless things have changed worth my blood (immune disorder ) haven't been to a doc in a good few years, and would like to soon.
But one of the last visits to my Hematologist, she said I can't donate anymore.. I have an immune disorder that kills off my platelets. & If low enough have to go to an infusion center & sit for two days and get 1900 cc of some shit pumped in IV . She said I could get my spleen removed, but said fuck that, Homie isn't jumping out no "perfectly" good airplane.

I am in same boat. They only test for antibody which doesn't prove u haven't gotten a new case or some still tiny viral load that can't be detected....
I been cleared since 2010, I never was treated. I got life insurance for business liver enzymes elevated because I was on winny, they shown up at my house to draw blood and do EKG.... never knew they were coming.... I never was treated for hep c and never needed to be, I am one of 11-14% that my immune system kill it on its own. Been viral load tested every 6 months then yearly for several years. No virus, no treatment, only an exposure I cleared on my own before u ever knew squat. But still condemned!!!
Long story shortened, I am now on TRT my Dr gives me order with forms to do free phlebotomy as needed for secondary polycythemia .
They throw my blood away or Maybe use it for research to find WHY my immune system been always great and killed hep c on its own...
Here are photos of forms I use that are needed. These are old new ones are as needed not every 3 weeks been doing this since 2012!!
Look also at how often I went for awhile...
I have drained I think over 50 pints in past 5 years last time I looked...
Hope i helped

You always carry antibody. I know all about this....
U been cleared of virus, they don't do viral load they do anti-body for screening.
Antibody means u been exposed. Being treated means u been treated and no longer have virus...
There is no way to prove u have or me a new case and that takes 6 month to a year to show on viral load.... They not doing an expensive viral load or taking risk...
Get it, u been cleared I have been cleared we were exposed and only thing that matters to them is antibody or not....
So do what I do and said in other post with TRT dr.... my wife can donate even though she lives with me because second part asked if I been treated and or cleared over 1 year and retested vital load after think it's 2x after cleared in 6 month intervals..
I know facts on this subject. We will not get virus or transmitte it as long as we don't put ourself at risk of new case... like sharing needles or being in contact with anyone who has it and sharing personal items or needles but antibody is again tested and it takes up to 6 months to have viral load so no proof of new case so there it is....
Move forward get TRT Dr and forms I posted. We will be treated same as the ones with active virus because antibody...
We cannot give virus unless we have virus antibody means exposed so we carried that if cleared and can not pass virus to our loved ones or anyone but screening is for reasons stated...

Honestly...! Nothing really, baby aspirin here & there if I feel
a little BP is up, or just back off (usually EQ, or Drol )
But soon enough, going to try & get reg bloods, in-fact my Hemo would do a full blood panel when I go back, and at her request for a few years she asked that I just hold off on AAS for a bit, I jumped back on , Feb will be 3 years Straight. The original Doc, b4 I canned him & got her, said definitely no Androgen's .
Just can't listen..., "Entirely" ...!

Not that I know of, or then anyhow. Unless has changed thru the years she said some folks go thru life & Lead normal lives (with abnormal Platelets count, or less than desirable ) she also cautioned me to not do any contact sports, yeah { @my age.. lol.. }...! As i could bleed internally (hemorrhage ) if hit hard or car accident..!
But the insurance required them to fall to almost dangerous levels b4 being admitted to an infusion center.
In which the stuff is IVIG (intravenous immune globulin )
Have been twice, for two days at a pop way early on, so I am curious to see where it stands these days, especially being back on the sauce .

I cannot use eq and haven't in 7 years.I am in same boat. They only test for antibody which doesn't prove u haven't gotten a new case or some still tiny viral load that can't be detected....

What causes me problem is long ester test being I haven't ran eq in years.. what helps is I use more prop and trest ace. Trest doesn't raise red blood....
Anadrol doesn't even cause me an issue.
I developed secondary polycythemia and hemochromatosis. I gotta keep iron down and iron stores down or hemo rises on TRT dose. Hep c exposure causes these issues in many with hepiciden and iron absorbing and not withholding. Transferritin saturation and total iron binding capacity often ordered for myself by my Dr. Also JAK 2 gene mutation often causes issue. Basically I have blood cancer and phlebotomy keeps it under comtrol... [MENTION=92]ketsugo[/MENTION] and u share the same issue and had many discussions on it over years...
Wanna hear wierd... Hgh has helped alot and Novothyral I don't have to drain but 3-4x per years no matter what u use....
U gave u forms use them many hep c exposed have this issue with iron and hepiciden from damage done to our liver. Most steroids increase red blood by suppressing hepiciden..
Trust me I have found answers long ago..
Do not use iron, b12, or vit c!!! At all!!
Wormwood, clove, and black walnut hull combo helps because it has chemotherapy properties....
So do what I do, get Dr up to date on forms and diagnosis.
Found newest forms....next post

Bravo.... Been at this long enough that I developed secondary polycythemia before actually getting in TRT... I found out what to do long ago because my hep c antibody even though I was cleared from virus 10 years ago...
So I went get on TRT to get these forms and even though my blood doesn't meet criteria to donate as listed on forms it's still done for free.
Now I got TRT for total hypogondism failure not anti-aging meaning my trt is real health issue approved by fda!!!

At first it was ribavirin and it made me sick. So I changed doctors and got epclusa. https://www.epclusa.com/what-is-epclusa/
