Could Joint Pains With Itching All Over The Body Be Due To Hepatitis C?
when I was 6 years old I had Hep but not sure what kind. I was yellow and was in the hospital and no one could come and see me unless wearing gowns and mask. in the last 4 years I have had stomic bleeding, big red blood blisters, poor short term memory, joint pain, and orange stool and occassionaly I itch all over. Could this be Hep C????

Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist.
It can be Hep C or Hep B, leading to cirrhosis, which lead to stomach bleed. I will suggest you to visit a Gastroenterologist for evaluation. He may advise trsts like HBsAg, Anti HCVab, LFT, Ultrasound abdomen, endoscopy and further test depending on the results.
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
