New and scared
« on: August 10, 2014, 03:26:12 am »
I am a 33 yr old f who has no idea what is going on in her body. These are my questions( both hep b and c) Are eye pain/ burning, sore lower back(base of spine) and abdomen near hips, hot feeling skin, bone and muscle pain, and very odd tiredness ( kind of like I have been drugged feeling) Are symptoms of either b or c? I am not sure if I am seeing yellowing in my eyes or not either because it is mild if so. Is it pronounced when jaundice is in the eyes? The veins are apparent on the lower half of my eyes. I also have a tightness in my throat and my sinuses are dry with pressure. I am seeing my doc tomorrow to retest and check all functions. I feel very ill now and need to know what others know about the acute symptoms. Thank you all

Not sure if I am replying back correctly but I guess I'll do it this way ;) I go in on Monday to see if anything is abnormal. Previous to this, I have come out negative for everything. I did start hep b shots back in April but had an exposure in june. A breakage. I am a regular tester anyways. I really wish more people would take testing seriously and understand that having no symptoms at all makes no difference. That has been the top reason I hear as an excuse not to. Can you tell me what is the most common time line after symptoms, people will test positive?it has been four weeks at least for me.Thank you for responding!

This forum took me awhile to get around too.up at top it says forum, then you go to unread under your name and click and that will bring you to all the questions of the day.and yesterday etc. I am still trying to get the hang out of all of this. I'm sure I have irritated people with the lock thing and my long replies.sometimes(most lol)  I go on and on .all I can do is try my best.it's an assumeable world today.sometimes they figure YOU mean this about something and you met something else all together so the comment you may get back might PISS you off or confuse you. Lol I hope you understand what I'M trying to say. Hang in there buddy and there is a lot of knowledge able PEOPLE on this site, some slot more than others 6weeks AGO I didn't know squishy pot about any of this.Lol Willie g  see it says squishy instead of squidly and slot instead of alot. This FRIGGIN machine. I'm old school. A STAMP and ENVELOPE would do me fine lol

I get what you mean Willy g. ;) I am glad there are forums like this for us all. I really appreciate the support! I would rather write a letter too but the modern age is a stickler for progression lol. I hope, even if I get a positive at some point, I can get the care I need. I feel like a bus has run me over lol. What did you experience if anything? And how did you find out? - i understand if that is too personal to answer :)
