My partner has had hep c for probably 25 years (used to use drugs in late teens/20 yrs old and was diagnosed in early 1990s)...She has no symptoms or anything as far as I can tell, and she likes to indulge in 2 glasses on wine on fridays with dinner, and 2 stubby type things of cider or a whisky & coke on saturday nights.

I worry about this, as I think people with hep c should have no alcohol at all.

Do you think this could accelerate any liver problems? Could she already have problems and we just don't know?

She's not had any tests done since around 2000, which i'm also not happy about, but she's passively stubborn...*sigh*
