Starting Treatment for My Diagnosis

Hi! I was diagnosed back in 2014 but had a very hard time accepting it. I was ashamed for a long time 🥺 I've finally reached out for help & I'm supposed to start treatment Monday. Can anyone tell me the process of it? Like what they will do? When I'll start medication? I've already had blood work for it. What's next?

I am sorry you waited so long to be treated. Damage to the liver is not something to mess with and at a certain point becomes irreversible. Shame sure can mess us up. Treatment for Hep C is expensive so they make you go through a lot of hoops before you can get treatment. I am still waiting and am certain I have ESLD. The only thing that will cure me is a liver transplant.
