According to People Magazine, Natalie Cole (Nat King Cole’s daughter) was diagnosed several months ago with Hepatitis C. Doctors have been quoted as saying she is responding well to treatment. None of the sites I read list her genotype nor if she has finished. It sounds like she is “undetectable” on her first viral count test. She is somewhat sure that she contracted it via intravenous drug use back in the 80’s.
Hey, there’s a great idea for a new song she could sing!
Un-de-tectable, that’s what you are…
Un-de-tectable though near or far…
That’s why baby, it’s incredible…
That you are so un-de-tectable…
Hope everyone else is undetectable too…
Everybody now, sing! LOL!
Other celebrities that have or had Hepatitis C:
I guess becoming a singer/celebrity can be bad for your liver!

okay great Iam glad to hear that natlie cole is doing well on her treatment
now if your information is correct then please do share the out come of treatment
what is she being given. what is the treatment.
Steven tyler is full recovery .. says he almost died taking the medication
Naomi Judd her recovery was not diffenate. so apparently it did not work? she was given
what they call complimentary medication…. by a physican.
Kenny Rogers what did he take for his hep c , is he cured
Iam not sure excatley Steven tyler may have had chemo therapy plus interferon and pills
and alternative treatment as well. i thnk it is wonderful he says he is cured. he has O hep c
Pamela Anderson stated that she was going to look into taking the treatment
i would like to here more about her treatment if any
or if Tommy Lee himself has done the treatment as well.
i think they are a great couple and should try monogamy for there marriage
They always get back together. Maybe they should renew there vows every couple of
years to keep it fresh
You know it is funny if your a big celerbrity who gets hep c the people feel sorry for you
if your a poor person no one cares . and your lucky to even get the medication.
if your a star and diganoised .. the doctors are hurring , they can not hurry enough to
get you the medications and they are giving it away for free. what a concept
tlk2usoon at the Yahoo . com says
how unfair…….but then again we dont live on the big blue ball ( all together ) that we
call EARTH! If your a celebrity your rewarded for having hep c and if your rich
you get immediate responses to help you get rid of it
while the rest get false hope …..
what gets me was a statement Pamela Anderson said , She was intending on not
telling anyone she had the hep c .. she was trying to keep it private.
I guees she had some kind of out patient treatment at UCLA. Pamela decided to state
she would probably die in a decade from the illness .. (which is a man made illness)
at least i call it man made. any way Pamela is doing the alternative treatment which is
natural ways of healing. i agree it keeps the viral count down using herbs. teas
this is what it dose it keeps the viral count down.
I do not blame anyone for wanting to keep hepatitis a secret, so many people do.
because the do not want to loose the friends there soon to be new frineds or there new
boyfriends or husbands or family or be called names for the illness. or be called a hore ,
or be treated like they have a plague, or people are scared of them . try being homless
and have no friends. no money ,.. and you are honest about your illness to the open
public…. so you can not have a boyfriend because hes scared of you . like your a ………
So iam dumped off with nothing.. i have been cheated on , told i was not good enough
i cannot have a relationship . that iam only good for ……! nothing.
I have never been the one to say iam quite about having the hep c..ever
iam up front about it .. plane and simple. I have no man because I have no money , I
have no home. i have no rich family , i have no assets.. i have hep c hey great!
oh and one more thing i have had to have a denture when i was a teenager. because
i was lacking enamel on my teeth became brittle. then i lost em . then i lost a denture
and could not buy one. so i was tooth less and sick and homless. its been a living
nightmare.. i cannot have love becasue i have hepatits c and was told that to my face.
i can not love you because you are sick. but i was good for a little while ..
just not good enough to marry. so iam in dire need i have no home. no man to love . no
assets nothing..
You want to know what my dream is : to live in a large estate not in a city with alot of
land from 200-2000 acres. with trees and flowers and horses maybe .. a never ending
supply of funds to buy some great food to heal with and the medication i need ,
beautiful clothes to wear and all things nice . to have a Chauffer to drive me where ever
I go , a maid to help me dress to be beautiful for my guests or our guests or so to go
anywhere. be able to get the dental implants i have always wanted . What it would be
like to have a beautiful smile. a good bite for a change so my mouth dosent hurt any
more either. a good chef to prepare the wonderful healthy meals . maybe i can help
once in awhile. i want to be told iam good enough and i am loved.
to be able to feel good again. to be able to talk about the illness and overcome it .
to be able to reach people and talk about the illness openly. i want to travel , see nice
places . have a loving man beside me to love me for who iam .. and support my cause
i want to learn so many things in life . iam interested in starting …….I have a few ideas!
things i would like to see if i can achieve in my life.
i would like to say that dreams well hopes more like it can come true!
i will look at all aspect of a cure for hepatitis c ….continually til…
Infact i will say also …. when i was told about the illness i asked to take
the medication for the illness and the doctor refused to give it to me .
the i had a live biopsy done as well .. and ct scans . then i saw a doctor who is a
gasterologists who i asked to give me the treatment under his care and he refused.
i just never had enough money .. and was not good enough to catch the sickness in a
early stage and elimanated it.
the doctors said i wasnt good enough.. to treat or to heal me from this .
Iam treated in society like a wallking dead person. and iam alive and real and it hurts
i can bleed hep c blood. and run high fevers and get treated like …….. I shoold not
exsist in life……
Iam not afraid to talk to anyone or tell anyone i have hep c and i want to be
cured. i want to feel beautiful and be loved and be in love. i want nice things and
a happy home.with family and friends for the rest of my life . and good help. as i need
help and positiveness around me. my email address is tlk2usoon at yahoo. com
can anyone hear me? will anyone email me who cares who can help?

The first injection is the worst. It does get easier. Yes you will be tired. I think it beats suffering from liver cancer.I am a women my first injection was like nothing I have ever experience. I could feel my blood rushing thru my body, It felt as if attacked ever joint. I could not move I was freezing cold to the bone. I could not even wipe the tears rolling out of my eyes. It passed within three hours. I felt flush, then I felt fine. The second injection I was all ready for the same thing. It didn’t happen my hand and feet got a little cold. Now I just do my injections around 8pm and make sure I relax to let the medicine work, and I am fine. This is my secret I mix honey and apple cider vinegar. I mix it real well and drink 5 tablespoons a half hour prior to any hep c meds. I do this and I have had no problems at all. I also use a lot of Simple Saline (nose spray) I am doing great. My Medication is by Scherring-Plough. The Honey and AppleCider Vinegar cuts the nausea and that horrible acid reflux. It also helps giving you energy. I asked my doctor he said it was fine. I was afraid to mix any more medications with the pegintron and ribavirin.
viral loads dropped 107,oooo in 4 weeks.It also helps to PRAY. I actually feel better being on the medicine, I now have HOPE. I am getting wonderful care. It is not that bad. I believe it has a lot to do with mind set. Tell yourself ou will be find the medicine is making you better and it will. The GRACE OF GODWILL HELP.

To all of those who have no money for hep c meds.
Call Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore Maryland. They have studies for Hep C. It cost you nothing. They even validate your parking ticket.
You get wonderful care. THey give you a EKG, Chest exray, Liver Biopsy, ALL FOR FREE. You just have to qualify. They are looking for Hep c geno type 1.
You can also check out clinical connetions. com Hospitals all over are giving out free medicine for Hep C. They are doing all kinds of studies and the meds are getting easier. Again I recommend mixing honey and apple cider vinegar. I take 5 tablespoons before each dose of medicine and I have not been nasuea,it cuts out the acid reflux. And it helps you with being so tired. As soon as I started this after my second dose I have been fine. I have not even had the headaches everyone complains about.
