Does Coffee affect Thyroid Medication?

I have noticed a lot of changes in myself since I started drinking coffee in the mornings.  Some of the main changes include fatigue during the day, headaches, weight gain, and problems with simply thinking. I just had a thryoid panel run, so I'll be able to tell in the next few weeks if my thyroid is acting up once again. I started thinking about the times of the changes and it coincides with when I started drinking coffee. 

I did some asking around and it was suggested to take my thyroid medicine at night time, so if I'm to continue drinking coffee, I will have to make the change. Here is the link to an article addressing this very issue.  It is a VERY good read.
