virus leaving the body

Had my 4 week check yesterday. The consultation costs £125 each time we meet, the bloods because they will not do them on the NHS cost £300 and the ultrasound another £300….all adding up thank goodness that my parents can help me out. He told me at this 4 week blood check he hopes to see undetectable viral load or at least lower than 15 units, this will determine if I need more time on the meds or not. He also dispelled the myth that Hep C lives for weeks out of the body, he reckoned about 2-3 hrs and he doesn't believe one could reinfect from a toothbrush…..

MRI

A kind Doctor in a grey dress, did the ultrasound yesterday morning, her technician nearly broke my hand with his grip of steel handshake hello! She stopped the scan within a couple of minutes saying that the lesion was still visible but didn't go into more info, she asked me weather or not I have had pancreatitis before and then suggested a CAT scan, I told her I was paying for this ultrasound in the hope of avoiding the CAT scan, to which she immediately suggested an MRI and went off to fill in some forms, I asked if I could have the MRI on the NHS, as they are super pricy and she agreed. She told me not to be alarmed but explained that she has written the words CANCER TARGETED on my notes. I am trying not to be too alarmed…but when the hospital phoned me later that day and booked me in for Saturday morning it felt very scary.

I feel very odd, perhaps I am also premenstrual, the HnH drugs have taken away a lot of my intuitive feelings of my cycle but my app says I am due tomorrow… I feel tearful and soft but have cancelled all my work this week and also my trips for the rest of the summer so that I can totally focus on healing myself as much as I can possibly manage.

So could I have had pancreatitis and just not realised?

The main symptom of acute pancreatitis is a severe, dull pain around the top of your stomach that develops suddenly, I have definitely had that once or twice in the past before, potentially that could be the cause of a cyst in the pancreas…..

Deep breathing, juicing and yoga seem like good plans.
