Do you mean thyroid medication (thyroxin) or anti-thyroid meds?

Too much thyroxin or T3/T4 is a high FT3 with shakes, severe anxiety, diareah (sp), hot sweats, very fast heartrate.

Too much anti-thyroid meds is coldness, slow heartrate, lethargy (no energy), constipation.

Although symptoms can be both but I usually go by my pulse, my bowels and my mental state.
Hope that helps.
