Hello, rajiv.pec, I am sure that when they did tests for hepatitis, they did for all three types. You mention that he was positive for Hep-C. I think you need more information about the tests they did for Hepatitis -C. This type , in most people, does not produce any symptoms (Although rarely) it goes into what is called Chronic Hepatitis . At this stage, the liver enzymes stay abnormal and one can experience symptoms of fatigue, aches and pains in the joints, skin rash, poor appetite etc. It is important to rule this out. Type-A hepatitis comes from eating or drinking contaminated food or drink. During the acute phase, there can be nausea, vomiting, fever, chills, yellow jaundice, poor appetite etc. This in majority of patients gets better on it s own, with supportive care, within 2-4 weeks. This does not turn into chronic phase. It is important that you discuss with your son s doctor about these. He needs to have the enzymes checked at least 4-6 week intervals to see if they are improving. Fat restricted diet, Vit-B Complex, Vit-C supplements are good for him. I wish him well.
