"I ask for help in fighting against Hepatitis C."

Donation protected
February 12 , Update : On February 7th, I visited a clinic in London and consulted with a hepatology professor who confirmed that I have chronic hepatitis C infection in my blood. During the examination, the doctor identified a condition on my body caused by the hepatitis C infection in the bloodstream. After discussing with the doctor and informing him that I don't have the financial means for private treatment, he promised to send a letter to my hospital to expedite the treatment process. As of today, I still haven't received any letter from the NHS regarding the treatment date. The NHS app shows the same date as in July. The hepatology professor mentioned that there is a good doctor in my city who can address my concerns, and he assured me that he would send all necessary documents to her to initiate my treatment in my city, as traveling to London is too far. During the examination, he mentioned the possibility of my pancreas being affected rather than my liver and suggested further tests for the left-side abdominal pain mentioned by the referred doctor. So far, I have no information from this mentioned doctor." You can read my all story on my facebook Jurate Desemira.

On October 16, 2023, I visited the family doctor due to mysterious lumps appearing on my legs. After examination, the doctor prescribed E45 cream with urea and Lauromacrogols for eczema for 30 days. There was no improvement, and after two weeks, sore throat began, accompanied by pus-filled lumps on my hands and legs, causing a burning sensation. I contacted the family doctor again, who prescribed Fexofenadine 180 mg tablets without conducting any tests during this time.

On November 16, I called the family doctor again, describing the same issue. Yellow spots appeared on the left side of my back, and there was unbearable pain beneath the breastbone on the left side. An appointment was scheduled two days later. Blood was taken, and tests were conducted for a low vitamin D level. I was prescribed D3 vitamin 50,000 units capsules for six weeks. After four weeks, a follow-up appointment revealed no improvement in vitamin D levels. Further tests indicated hepatitis C and liver abnormalities.



The only path to seeing a hematologist before summer ( gp date is on July) is through a private clinic, but as a single mother, the costs are prohibitive.
Found many other diseases that i can treat through the NHS, like : Colorectal malignant polyp, stomach bacteria - H. Pylori, liver cirrhosis. All these conditiobs are caused by chronic hepatitis C. But as long as i have chronic hepatitis C in my blood, they don't start treatment.

As of now, my condition is deteriorating rapidly—vomiting blood, body covered in pus-filled lumps, and one eye started to turn yellow, impairing vision. On February 1, 2024, I started vomiting blood, went to the emergency room, and was diagnosed with a ruptured stomach lining caused by hepatitis C.

My blood test results, due in a few days, were abandoned, and I will have to follow up for a repeat test. I reluctantly ask for your help. I've always been the one to assist others, and now I sincerely want to live, see more of the world, and raise my son. If financial assistance isn't possible, please consider sharing my plea with friends.
