About Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an inflammation of the liver, transferred chiefly through the blood. It is more difficult to cure than Hepatitis A or B. The condition can often persist for years and is associated with chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and liver cancer.
About Liver Disease
Liver Disease is a blanket term describing any number of diseases that affect the liver. They include hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, cirrhosis, cancer, and primary biliary cirrhosis. Many liver diseases are accompanied by jaundice and an increased level of bilirubin, which results from the breakup of hemoglobin of dead red blood cells. Normally the liver removes bilirubin and excretes it through bile.
