An Excellent Rresource for the Newly Diagnosed

Living With Hepatitis C: Everything You Need to Know (Your Personal Health) by Jenny Heathcote, et al. This is a very succinct and thorough guide to hepatitis C. It describes everything an HCV-positive individual needs to know about hepatitis C, from prevention to treatment. It contains case studies, illustrations, and an excellent resource guide. From her personal experience, Dr. Heathcote provides an excellent tool for people who are newly diagnosed with hepatitis C. Unlike many of the other books available, this one is concise and not overwhelming for people seeking simple and straightforward answers. It discusses both medical and practical aspects of living with hepatitis C. Subjects include the various types of hepatitis and how they differ, how hepatitis C affects the liver, the tests and procedures that are performed in order to effectively diagnose hepatitis C, an overview of the treatments available, and the medications that are used for treatment. In addition, the book includes a section on hepatitis C in children and during pregnancy, as well as the process an HCV-positive individual will go through if a liver transplant is necessary. The author very effectively covers sensitive areas, including a candid discussion on how drinking and other lifestyle decisions affect the course of the disease. In summary, this is a very comprehensive and to-the-point guide to hepatitis C. It is an excellent tool for people newly diagnosed with HCV and covers all the necessary subject areas with practical tools and suggestions. Highly Recommended.
