My boyfriends mother has found out that she has Hepatitis. She will not tell anyone what type she has though. She is teling us that it is the type caused by eating a poor diet. I have never heard of this and have looked up Hepatitis on he web and i have not been abe to find a type that consists of this. WE have a 10 year old and a 2 year old and I am pregant again. I do know there is one type that you souldn't be around children. I also have a very low immune system and am in a igh risk pregancy. I am worried about our childrens health. I am wondering if there happens to be a type of Hepatitis that is caused by a poor diet or if she is lying abut this.
