Stay On Top Of Hepatitis C 

Hepatitis C Screening in SF

Hepatitis C is a serious disease caused by a virus that attacks and causes liver inflammation. It is contracted by contact with infected blood or other bodily fluids. In most cases, patients with Hepatitis C will not display any symptoms. The symptoms that are displayed, such as yellowing of the eyes and skin, stomach pain, loss of appetite, nausea, and fatigue often go unnoticed or are ignored. As a result, it is important that patients come in for a Hepatitis C screening. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that patients born between 1945 and 1965 get a Hepatitis C blood test at least once. Patients who have received blood from donors with Hepatitis C, who have ever injected drugs, have been on kidney dialysis over a long period of time, or have symptoms of liver disease should also get a screening. 

Hepatitis C is treatable with antiviral medication. In some cases, Hepatitis C can be cured with medication.
