Thank you for the information,

There is a relationship between hypothyroidism & increased cholesterol level.
In hypothyroidism there can be increased cholesterol & weight gain.

Among other condition
Hepatitis C is a viral infection, it is not been seen related to hypothyroidism or high cholesterol level.

Degenerative disease of disc is not related to Hypothyroidism though it has been seen that in hypothyroidism there can be loss of bone density.
Lovastatin is to reduce lipid level.
Levoxyl for hypothyroidism.

Take more vegetables, fruits, fibre rich cereals.

If you need further clarifications, I will be happy to explain further.
