Nowadays HCV is eminently treatable, almost painlessly compared to the early days of interferon + ribavirin which would make people sick with flu like symptoms for 6 - 12 months and often cause thyroid problems with resulting weight loss.
Getting treated sooner rather than later after infection is a good idea. Keep in mind that untreated HCV may lie dormant in your body for up to a decade before it decides to take off and multiply.
