[|Human|] My 29 y.o. son was recently found to have Hepatitis C. He also drinks heavily and does not want to quit. Someone at the hospital must have told him that he will die if he doesn t stop. He is now telling my husband and I that he doesn t think he is going to live much longer. He also has cerebral palsy since birth. He s old enough that we weren t told any of this. I m not sure if he is over-reacting.....
[|AI|]  Hello, Hepatitis C(HPV) is a blood-borne disease that causes inflammation of the liver, the virus invades the cells in the liver and causes swelling & dysfunction. Liver is one of the largest & the most important organ of the body. HPV patients should abstain from all kinds of addictions, taking alcohol is life-threatening. Alcohol intake will reduce the efficacy of the medications(Interferon & Riboviria) being given for treatment & may worsen the illness. It is recommended that hepatitis patients should be given homemade boiled food. Spices, oily, junk food is to be avoided. Fruits, veggies, berries should be given. Hepatitis patients need much care. HPV patients need much care, they should not take alcohol even after treatment to avoid relapses. Get your son treated at the earliest.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
