Pam A & Hep C

Seen Pamela Anderson saying she is "cured" of Hep C (fantastic that she has had this new 12 week treatment).

I went through 6 months of interferon treatment 5 years ago and cleared the virus - BUT I was under the impression that I would never be completely "cured" as I would still carry the antibodies and am unable to give blood, donate my organs when I die etc.

AIBU and ill informed? I have Googled and there seems to be much conflicting info (as there is everything Hep C related although things are a lot better than 19 yrs ago when I was diagnosed).

Is there anyone more knowledgeable than me who can explain this?

Thanks.
I'm happy with my life now, but it was very upsetting at the time.
