Thyroid: The symptoms you write about do not sound like low thyroid symptoms. Please have your doctor examine you and check all your thyroid related labs.

High thyroid ?: best if you have your thyroid levels checked (or re checked) as the current symptoms you are having may suggest "over" active thyroid/Graves's
