What Is The Potential Risk Of Getting Hepatitis C?

Hi, I snorted cocaine for the first time last week- my nose didn't bleed but I shared a note to snort the cocaine. I didn't snort much cocaine but I am very paranoid about getting hepatitis C. I won't snort again, but am getting really paranoid. I can't sleep because of it and am really tired. I wanted to know the potential risk of getting hepatitis C.
