I am a 62 year old female. I have always been an athlete and very strong. I contracted hep c in 1978. It never hindered me until 2004, when I started to show symptoms of chronic fatigue. I was still able to play golf and work, etc. 8 months ago, I started feeling very sick, started losing too much weight and unable to gain it back. Every day got worse. Now, I am 15 lbs underweight (no matter how much I eat), my muscles are very weak, my vocal chords are weak and bowed . Tests show non-obstructed dilated bile ducts and cysts on the liver. I do not have cirrhosis, but my viral load is a million. On top of everything, I slipped a disc in my lumbar and have been in chronic pain. What concerns me the most is this all over body weakness including vocal chords and weight loss. From the strongest woman to the weakest? Please help
