well, there's no set time date. however it always eventually turns into aids which you usually die within 10 years. although i know someone who's survived for 26 years with aids. it depends on the persons age/health and how good their immune system is. typically from contracting hep c all the way until they die of aids (or a really bad flu when their immune system is down) that persons wil most likely live with the disease for around 20 years.

Can you get hep c or hiv from snorting drugs?
You can ABSOLUTELY get Hepatitis C from snorting drugs as Hep C is a blood to blood transmission and if someone has Hep C and uses the straw with some blood in their nose and then passes it to you and you have cuts or open blood places in your nose that IS a blood to blood transmission. Hep C is only transmitted sexually if BLOOD is shared in your sex act. Hep C does not die when it hits the air, it can live up to 4 days. HIV dies as soon as it hits the air which is why it is sexually transmitted. Yes you can get Hep C by sharing needles but you can also get it INTRANASALLY so don't share straws, rolled $$, etc
