Several : Some classic symptoms of overactive thyroid would be weight loss despite no change in activity or intake, feeling warmer than others, an elevated and/or irregular heart rate, feeling anxious, diarrhea. If left untreated it can lead to atrial fibrillation and congestive heart failure. Over a longer period of time will affect bone density. See your provider to discuss in more detail.
