Steven Tyler has Hep C
Aerosmith frontman, Steven Tyler, will reveal to Access Hollywood tomorrow that he has hepatitis C. The serious and deadly viral infection is mostly caught through needles. Steven is an admitted former drug user and was diagnosed 3 years ago.
He said: "I've been pretty quiet about this," says the admitted former drug addict. "The band took a break about three years ago. ? [My doctor] said now is the time, and it's 11 months of chemotherapy" actually, interferon, which strengthens the immune system ? "so I went on that, and it about killed me.
" You know, it really hurt. It was a bad, bad period. I'm in AA, and I tried to go three, four, five months with nothing, and it about killed me."
Steven joins Pamela Anderson in celebrities that have confessed to having the disease. Steven plans to make the country aware of the condition.

Re: Steven Tyler has Hep C
It is such a shame. He is so amazingly talented. I feel that we will be hearing many more of theses stories about rockers who were former heroin addicts going thorugh this. I bet there are many out there that we don't know yet! So sad! I saw him last Tuesday at teh beach and let me tell you he is one of the best singers ever!
