I am so sorry to hear of your long term effects. That is what everyone dreads about treatment. You have also had many other stressful and difficult events in the recent past and none of that helps either. I will be praying for you and hope you find some relief soon.
May i thank you ALL ,for your comments .I cant believe iv gone through a yr of post symptoms without finding this site and others that are also suffering ,and sum that arnt !!!. I hope that as time goes on my symptom s will cease .And that i can help other s with my experience.The only thing is....THAT !!!!...i don t think will correct itself ,is the fact ,that the treatment sent my THYROID GLAND into over-drive .As in "normal thyroid problems" it happens gradualy.But the treatment speeded up this process so my thyroid was none-exsitant 4weeks into treamtent ,then took the docs another 4weeks to find out .Oh well!!! im now having to take medication which does keep it stable ....Thanx again and good luck to you all xx
There are other threads but they are very long and go off on many tangents.
I'm 6 months out I know what you mean about the mornings takes me a while to get going.
I don't have time to write much at the moment. I just wanted to add my voice to the others. You are not alone in experiencing long-term side effects. There are similar outcomes to yours.
Welcome to the HCV Community site.
Of course, I did mean "long term effects" sorry for the typo....
Please do read the prior threads on 'lont term' effects from interferon therapy. There have been several posted in the last week or so, and you can find them by scrolling back through the pages on the forum. You might find some information and fellow sufferers by reading the threads. Your communications and comments are welcomed.

I am sorry your still suffering..I pray you will find some relief soon. I worked for several year in a VA Hospital drawing blood and what you describe and described I saw so often it scared me right out of treating for myself.
