Ukuqala ukwelashwa kwesifo sokusha kwesibindi kohlobo C

Kungathatha isikhathi ukuthi i-hepatitis C engapheli ibangele izimpawu ezimbi. Kodwa lokho akusho ukuthi kuphephile ukubambezela ukwelashwa. Ukuqala ukwelashwa kusenesikhathi kunganciphisa ingozi yokuba nezinkinga ekuguleni, kufaka phakathi isibazi sesibindi nomdlavuza wesibindi.

Funda ukuze ufunde ukuthi kungani kubalulekile ukuqala ukwelashwa ngokushesha okukhulu ngemuva kokutholakala unalesi sifo.

Imithi elwa namagciwane ingalapha i-hepatitis C

Ngenxa yentuthuko esanda kwenziwa ekwelashweni, imithi elwa namagciwane ingalapha amacala e-hepatitis C.

Uma kuqhathaniswa nokwelashwa okudala, izizukulwane ezintsha zemithi elwa namagciwane ziyasebenza kakhulu ekwelapheni lesi sifo se-hepatitis C.

Uma ukuqina kwesibindi kuthuthuka kakhulu, kuzoba nzima kakhulu ukuthi isibindi sakho sicubungule izakhi zomzimba futhi sisuse imikhiqizo kadoti emzimbeni wakho. I-cirrhosis yesikhathi esedlule ingadala izinkinga ezinkulu zempilo, njenge:

• umfutho wegazi ophakeme emithanjeni eletha igazi esibindini sakho
• kuqhume imithambo futhi kuphume isisu nesisu sakho
• ukwakha uketshezi emilenzeni nasesiswini sakho
• ukwakha ubuthi ebuchosheni bakho
• ukukhulisa ubende lwakho
• ukungondleki kanye nokwehlisa isisindo
• ingozi eyengeziwe yokutheleleka
• ingozi eyengeziwe yomdlavuza wesibindi
• ukwehluleka kwesibindi

Ngemuva kokuthi i-cirrhosis ikhule, kungahle kungenzeki ukuyiguqula. Yingakho kubaluleke kakhulu ukuthatha izinyathelo zokukuvimbela. Ukwelashwa kusenesikhathi kwe-hepatitis C kungasiza ekuvimbeleni noma ekunciphiseni ukukhula kwe-cirrhosis, kwehlise ingozi yokuba nomdlavuza wesibindi, ukwehluleka kwesibindi, nezinye izinkinga.

Ukwelashwa kusenesikhathi kungangeza iminyaka empilweni yakho

Uma ulinda isikhathi eside ukuqala ukwelashwa, igciwane isikhathi eside kufanele lenze umonakalo ongabeka impilo yakho esibindi. Ngaphandle kokwelashwa ngama-antiviral, kulinganiselwa ukuthi amaphesenti angama-67 kuye kwangama-91 abantu abanesibazi sesibindi esihlobene ne-hepatitis C babulawa umdlavuza wesibindi, ukwehluleka kwesibindi, noma ezinye izimbangela ezihlobene nesibindi.

Ukuthola ukwelashwa ngaphambi kwesikhathi kungasiza ekuvimbeleni izinkinga ezisongela impilo yakho, ezingangezela iminyaka empilweni yakho. Ukuvimbela izinkinga nakho kungakusiza ukuthi ujabulele impilo engcono isikhathi eside.

• ukuzalwa ngumama onesifo sokusha kwesibindi kohlobo C
• ukwabelana izinaliti noma imijovo esetshenzisiwe ukujova izidakamizwa zokuzijabulisa
• ukubanjwa ngephutha ngenaliti esetshenzisiwe ngenkathi usebenza njengomhlinzeki wezokunakekelwa kwempilo
