Meds regulation need: It may be. It sounds like your medicine needs to be regulated again. Check with your doctor or endocrinologist.

Some but not all: I really can't say any of your symptoms are associated with hyperthyroidism, but some (not all) of your symptoms can be related to an overactive parathyroid gland or glands, a condition called hyperparathyroidism. Hyperparathyroidism is diagnosed when you have a high blood calcium and parathyroid hormone. Everything you mentioned, except the stuttering, can be due to this.
