« on: July 16, 2014, 11:51:47 pm »
I found out I had hep c when I was pregnant am unsure still if the virus is active or not as asked in a previous post do I'm not sure if I was active when my daughter was born I know the percentage is low even if it was active but when the gave me a c section they cut her arm coming out if my virus was active would the chances be pretty high that she would have it?
