Welcome at HCM I have gone through your query and being your doctor I completely understand your health concerns.... What is your age? What us the viral load on PCR? Is there any evidence of fibrosis or cirrhosis on liver biopsy report? What about the size of portal vein and spleen on ultrasound? Is there any ascites? What is your bilirubin and albumin levels in blood!!!! These all queries need to be answered before a reasoned conclusion can he drawn in your case. You should consult hepatologist regarding it. Nowadays new drug by the name of SOVALDI has come in market and it is very effective in treating hepatitis c with less side effects as compared to interferon... In my opinion acetaminophen doesn t cause burning of liver you can safely use it in chronic liver disease in therapeutic doses... So stop worrying about it and avoid meat and decrease your salt intake...and meet hepatologist as soon as possible... Hope your query is adequately answered Regards Dr saad sultan
