Possibly exposed, so these symptoms sound concerning?

When I was younger I made a stupid decision. I hated how I looked so the thought of trying in my brother’s blue contacts was exciting and trumped my thinking. Well the contact was bad and cut my eye leading to an infection. If it cut my eye it could have cut his too’is my worry.
Then following came the weird symptoms.
Acne that never came to a head that itches
Frequent urination
Always feeling like I was coming down with a cold but it would never peak
Shivers, migraines, digestion issues
Stools went from dark brown to light orange and fatty
Stabbing pain in ribs
Appearance of being pregnant
Tired constantly
Dizzy, weird head buzz that would come with stomach pain and then having to rush to the bathroom
High blood pressure
Toenails and corners of eyes turned orange yellow
Pain in back of leg
Mri showed fatty liver, no alcohol and great diet
Ultrasound showed enlarged thyroid with normal thyroid labs
Vomiting with stabbing pain in ribs
Eyebags
Itchy skin
Feeling weak
Internal vibrations
Confusion and brain fog
Sudden caffeine , nicotine, and thc intolerance
Random weight gain and weight loss

    1. Hey sending you my love. You've definitely been through a lot. Let me just say you are STRONG, despite all of that. Have you been able to get tested for Hep C? How long have you lived with all of these symptoms? - Jada hepatitisc.net team member

      1. Not yet because I didn’t think anything of it until he came positive of it. It’s been a couple years now . Honestly if it ends up being the answer I won’t be mad I’ll be relieved because something has been wrong and doctors don’t know why but they agree something is indeed wrong . Do these symptoms relate? I’ll seeing doctor Monday for blood order
