I was diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in March of 2016. I was recently told I only have 10 days to live. I’m so excited to be able to share this diagnosis with my readers! Hyperthyroidism can present with a variety of signs and symptoms including, fatigue, skin dryness, anxiety, anger, depression, shortness of breath, dry mouth, sweating, and weight loss.
Hyperthyroidism can also show up with symptoms that are much more subtle and difficult to see. The most common signs are fatigue, night sweats, weight loss, muscle pain, and a sense of being out of breath. Most likely this is a result of increased energy, but it can also be a symptom of a thyroid condition called Hashimoto’s disease.
Hashimotos disease is a condition that affects the thyroid gland, which is responsible for producing the body’s important hormones. It causes excessive, frequent, and violent growth of thyroid tissue. Those who experience this condition don’t experience any obvious symptoms, but many do. It can cause the thyroid glands to swell and grow inside the body, causing a range of symptoms.
This is the case with hyperthyroidism, which can be caused by a number of factors. One is the immune system, which can malfunction and attack the thyroid gland. An extra thyroid gland is often also present. Both conditions can cause the body to go into an overactive state, and that can lead to a condition called hypothyroidism.
Hypothyroidism is known as a “thyroid storm” because it can cause the thyroid gland to go into a state of overactive, which is a condition known as hyperthyroidism. Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is overly active and out of the control of the immune system. An example of this condition is a person who has a large thyroid gland due to being on a medication that causes the gland to go into a hyperactive state.
It seems like it’s only a matter of time before another medication causes a person to go into the hyperthyroidism stage. Hyperthyroidism is an autoimmune condition, which means that the body is attacking itself. It is thought that overactive thyroid could be triggered by a number of things, including chemotherapy, certain drugs, autoimmune disorders, or diseases like Graves’ disease.
Hyperthyroid patients tend to experience a lot of fatigue and joint pain, but they also have more severe cases with muscle pain, tremors, and anxiety. They may also have hair loss, but that’s less of a problem than it is for patients with Graves disease.
Although there are no official numbers for how many hyperthyroid patients in the United States are treated with medication, it’s estimated that one in every four people in America is affected by a form of thyroid disease.
It’s estimated that anywhere between 3 and 6 percent of people being treated for hyperthyroidism in the United States are women. I’m sure most of us have seen pictures of women on the beach with their babies and it makes us want to crawl into our closets and hide.
