Someone has asked: If they have been successfully treated for HepC and no longer have it...are they still permanently deferred from donating?

No, you cannot donate blood if you ever had hepatitis C, even if you spontaneously cleared the virus or if you were successfully cured with medication. Even if you have had an SVR (sustained virologic response) from a course of medication for hepatitis C and you are "cured" -- blood donation is still prohibited.
