Danger! You May Have This!!steemCreated with Sketch.

It’s not a big revelation that we’re all dying every day, but we certainly don’t want to push that time up by checking out too early. Some diseases and conditions have visible hints that something’s up, but others are thieves – they arrive under wraps and then steal days by remaining hidden from treatment.

Here is a hidden disease that you should be aware of. It kills, and you may have it and not know. Most are easily treated, but you have to be aware that you have the disease and that means having a test or looking for tiny signs that indicate you’re sick.

We all know about the harms of bad cholesterol and lack of exercise, but this is even more damaging.

Don’t think hepatitis is something only drug addicts get. A simple lab test can tell if you have one of the hepatitis viruses – A, B or C. Shocking estimates from the CDC claim that a shocking number of people have Hep C, but don’t have any symptoms! You contract it by coming into contact with someone with the condition – and having exposure to bodily fluids. If you have fatigue, muscle or joint pain and a loss of appetite you need to ask for a hepatitis check. The disease gradually destroys your liver.
