Doing drugs or using needles isn't the only way u can get it. You can ha e intercourse with someone who has her also. When I was dx with her B I freaked out on the Dr I wanted to know how in the hell I caught something like that and I already knew I had alcoholic hepatitis, he told me that my liver was already broke down with the alcoholic her. So I was alot more susceptible to get it

There is no vaccine for Hep C and you can have it for decades without knowing it before it is too late. Blood transfusions before 1992 caused a lot of infections in my generation. Everyone should be tested at least once in their life for Hep C. There are vaccines for Hep A and B. Get treatment and learn more about it.

I have acute alcoholic hepatitis but it went away. But I do have acute hepatic failure. It happened after I quit drinking. No cirrhosis though and through steriods, my liver recovered. There are lots of ways you can get hep c.
