if i don't take the hep c treatment will i for sure get liver cancer

if i don't take the hep c treatment will i for sure get liver cancer?
I have found out i have hep c . I've known it since march 08 and i think i've had it for many, many years. My friend has it too, and she took the treatment years ago. Now she found out she has liver cancer, this is after taking good care of herself. So if she got liver cancer even after the treatment. Why should i do the treatment ? I've heard it was very difficult to do the treatment.

You should really discuss all of this with your doctor. It is not for sure that you will have liver cancer, or any complications. Some hep c drugs work for some people, while for others they don't. Treatment is difficult, but there are new drugs coming out that have less side effects. The good thing about treatment is that it can lengthen your life. Look into different types of therapy, like holistic and experimental treatment. But definitely discuss all these options with a good doctor (a specialist) and don't make a hasty decision about your health. Stay well!

Not everyone developes liver cancer- whether you've been treated for hcv or not. Go for the treatment and say clear of risk factors and you should be just fine! :O)
