Have you been diagnosed with it by your dr or specialist? I've never heard of it, but that means nothing! I'm not going to google it either, otherwise it'll become another symptom to obsess over, :)

No, I searched it,saw pics. I see my Doc Thurs.for end of treatment of 12 weeks,I have 3 pills left of 84. I have seen that this symptom comes from liver issues as many things do,I had a Fibrosure test done and I had/have a "A3 severe activity" I was told that's a gauge of how bad the HCV has beat your liver down. I'll find out more Thurs.
