After living on the ugly side of Hepatitis C for 16 years, the peoples celebrity Pamela Anderson might finally get cured.
She told People
that she's going on the new antiviral medication that clears up the
liver disease in a matter of weeks. Before the drug was approved by the
FDA, Hepatitis C was considered incurable.
When she was diagnosed, the former Baywatch
star said it was treated as "a death sentence." She came out publicly
about it in 2002, saying she had contracted it from sharing a needle
with her ex, Tommy Lee -- a claim he denied.
Now,
thanks to the new treatment, "I could be Hep C free within the month,"
Anderson reported. She said thankfully, she's had no liver damage or
side effects from the disease so far, and she's looking forward to a
hepatitis-free future.
