I actually got the first cure. The shoots and pills Made me sick as a dog, but from what they told me, I was good. Honestly would like to get rechecked just to be sure.

Which I got through a program.

I have known a lot of people with hep c, all the older junkies from generations prior to mine had it it seemed, I used to have junkie roommates which ended very predictably, with them stealing my shit and selling it for pennies on the dollar. But some of their junkie acquaintances were ok, they were like in their 50's and still doing fine, they just couldn't drink much if at all and idk what else. Opiates for all of their faults don't harm any organ systems.

Yep. The thing for me is I was straight edge till I was discharged. I had wanted to serve since I was like 6 yrs old, and I kept myself out of trouble. I never knew how I got it. I will say, my mother got tested after I had called her from Paris Island and told her. She had it. My dad, however, refused to get tested.
