6 Effects of Hepatitis C on Your Body

Toxic buildup in the brain

If liver inflammation leads to liver failure, a buildup of toxins in the brain can cause mental confusion, moodiness and slurred speech. Unconsciousness may occur if this condition is left untreated.

Yellow skin and eyes

HCV that affects liver function can cause jaundice or make your skin and the whites of your eyes turn yellow because of high levels of bilirubin.

Sleep disorders

Although not well understood, HCV can cause your immune system to attack your thyroid cells. This can cause both overactive and underactive thyroid function. These conditions can result in fatigue and general sluggishness.
