My wife has just been dx with heptocelluler carcinoma HCC. She is 66 and healthy. She was dx with hpc in 2006. We believe she contracted it through blood transfusion at the time of of our daughter birth. It went unchecked for 25 yrs.
Following 2 riboviron/ interferon treatments she has been undetectable since 2008. I'm looking for info from people dealing with HCC with experience with treatment, struggles, victories etc. I figure this is the place on HW for liver cancer as I don't find one specific for it. Thanks in advance.

Hi mark
Have you posted before. You our name seems familiar. Yes you’re in the right place.

I cleared hcv in 2012. Luckily I didn’t get cancer, but my twin did. Crazy, since we’re not identical, but share most dna.

How long after curing, did she get hcc?
Is she transplantable? Meld score?
