Jeanie-
first congrads on quitting smoking, that can be a hard one, but now that your into the fourth wk, it shows you are strong minded and it will get much easier, also you will start feeling the effects of NOT smoking, its amazing how much better you feel.
From everything I have researched a 2A/2C with stage 1 would be the perfuct canidate for the Pegasys mono or Peg-Intron even mono, its the Ribavirin that can be quite hard on some and you may not even need it, why take it if your chances are very high for a responce without the Ribavirin.
Regardless, being a 2A/2C stage one, you have lots of time to decide what is right for you,you are right on not being pushed into treatment, within five years they say reseachers think that they may develop much more user freindly treatments, in my non-medical,non professional opinion I think if you decide to wait, and take good care of yourself, five years, stasticaly will not progess to a serious health problem.
In any Case I wish you the best in your decision,
Be well Jeanie +
