Thyroid symptoms?
HI, I have dealt with my thyroid for almost 15 years. Off and on the symptoms return, my thyroid levels balanced or not. My question is, can the symptoms of Hyperthyroidism, and Hypothyroidism intermingle? For example, the biggest symptoms have been fatigue, nervousness, etc. but another big one has been the numbness in only my left arm. Also in my left arm, I feel the strong pulse and weakness. Any help would be great, thanks.

yes, to answer your question, hyper and hypothyroidism symptoms can mesh together. Fatigue is the biggest one that is present in both. But hyperthyroidism is usually associated with your body being more revved up than it should be causing you to have a higher basal metabolic rate, thus causing WT loss, anxiety, sweating, hot temper, heat intolerance whereas hypo is the exact opposite. There are a number of conditions in which you may switch from hyper to hypo. One of them that comes to mind is after treatment for hyperthyroid, there may be too drastic a swing and you’d become hypo. Its best to see your doctor about your concerns and he’ll probably order up a T3/T4 lvl and TSH test maybe a thyroid scan. Best of luck. 15 years is a long time to suffer, so go see your doc! My guess though would be that you’re more leaning on the hyperthyroid side of things.
I have Hashimotos Hypothyroidism and I have symptoms of hyper and hypothyroidism.
I’m slim as well.
I am hyperthyroid but I am tired,no appetite and have lost weight.I am also weak so who knows what the heck is going on?My Endo.has me take blood levels every two months and has me on methimazole.I can’t answer your question but i would ask the Doc.
