Hypothyroidism in Hepatitis C

A blood test on 2000-Aug-12 showed my thyroid seemed to be underactive. Searching for links between Thyroid disease and Hepatitis C and its treatment, this is the only page I found discussing the link between them.

For more background information on the Thyroid, I found a great primer site on about.com -- Thyroid Disease 101 (part of an overall larger site about the thyroid at about.com).

Gav, I'm in awe. You have a fantastic attitude towards
this. I know it's something that you just have to do,
but there's always a choice of how you handle it. Best
wishes for your ultimate success in kicking ass.

Yes, I had this problem after my first use of Interferon and now am taking tablets every morning to correct it. For the rest of my life.
