Hello Dr - I was dx'd w/multi-nodular, non-toxic goiter and was hyperthyroid, following an MVA in Dec '10. Been tested, scanned, uptakes, biopsied (benign), elevated iodine levels. After two months on antithyroid med and feeling better the Tapazole was d/c'd in late October '11. In early January '12 I was mildly hyper, TSH was 0.203, I was told to have my thyroid labs repeated in 6 weeks, by my endo who has moved away. I was more symptomatic, inquired into restarting Tapazole but my dr was concerned I might become hypo. Within six weeks, in mid Feb., my symptoms were increasing, I called for an appt with the nurse practitioner who manages my care, couldn't get in for 2-3 weeks, haven't seen her yet. I wanted my labs ordered, I have daily headaches, pounding chest, insomnia, severe fatigue, irritable, anxiety, balance issues, low appetite w/trouble swallowing/regurgitating, abd pain/gas/diarrhea after eating, episodes of flushing on my face/neck/chest & R arm with drenching sweats, pains on the L side of my head, chronic daily burning stomach w/abd pain, painful muscles w/knots & spasms, am diabetic. I had three BP reading in the past five days: 151/117; 161/96; and 160/100 after an episode of R shoulder pain, severe stomach burning/pain and flushing with a drenching sweat and clamminess. I saw a new internal med dr four days ago who ordered my thyroid labs. Long, incredible story shortened: I learned this afternoon that my TSH is 0.009 and restarted Tapazole 10mg/daily. I don't recall how long it took to see improvement w/Tapazole the first time but I just want to jump out of my skin and have been walking around for weeks feeling like I am going to pass out or drop dead. My former endo doesn't think all of my symptoms are due to my thyroid, he has checked some other things but the tests were normal. Do you think all of these symptoms can be caused by hyperthyroidism and how soon until I might feel a little better? Thanks much. ~ Mary
