Can i have hyperthyroidism even if tests have been negative? symptoms of rapid weight loss, hair loss, fatigue and dry circular skin patches.

Unlkikely!: If your TSH is normal, and your free T4 and T3 (liothyronine) are normal, it would be quite (no extremely) unlikely that you are hyperthyroid. Illness itself can cause hair and weight loss. I suspect you need an alternate diagnosis. Since I do not know your age, it is hard to make suggestive diagnoses.
