For slow or nonprogressors, a reasonable management strategy is watchful waiting (treatment is deferred with at least annual visits with a medical provider for monitoring). This management strategy is especially relevant as rapidly emerging new therapies, still in clinical trials and not yet commercially available, are promising high cure rates with better side-effect profiles.
While advising patients on management potions, clinicians weigh the individual’s chance of a sustained viral response, the stage and rate of progression of their disease, the risk of severe side effects and patient preference. Informed deferral of treatment requires a discussion with the patient of the risks and benefits of watchful waiting [11]. Although CHC may progress slowly, patients are aware of potential complications. This can lead to illness uncertainty as they are unsure about what will happen to them over time with a disease that offers few cues to progression until symptoms appear.
Illness uncertainty is defined by Mishel as the inability to determine the meaning of illness-related events and occurs if the patient cannot structure a framework in which to place those events because of insufficient cues to
